  1. Speaking about things that should be coming, when will webos 2.0 be coming? Did he say that?

  2. In the next few months.

    :(

  3. They are not giving up I like that . 2011 will be the year for Palm devices Launching 3 to 4 new smarrtphones every 3 months is only way to catch droids and if they go beyond them in hardware., and before the Gingerbread 3.0 release which will match in some way to webOS 2.0.
