The market smiles on Palm
from the it's-not-just-dot-coms-that-can-make-mad-money dept
It amuses me that Palm, the just recently floated division of 3Com is now worth about twice as much as its parent company. The interesting question will be whether Palm can keep its lead in the wireless market or whether a combination of licensed Palm clones, Wireless phones and Psion will tear this company to shreds (and destroy this current market valuation) within a year. I hope the newly crowned Palm CEO's got his thinking cap on, he's going to need it!
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
