I think it's an exciting paradigm, using web technologies as the platform for local applications. I think both yourself and Ben will be very valuable members of the Palm team. I just hope they exploit your many talents. My only selfish request is for the developer tools to be brought up to the standard of the webOS, decent debugger and improved Eclipse plugin. Besides that, well done! Hey Dion, this is great news. I think it’s an exciting paradigm, using web technologies as the platform for local applications.

As a loyal Palm T|X user, I have been waiting for a very long time for Palm to update its software so I can hotsync with my Windows Motion tablet. I'm on the verge of ditching Palm all together because of its non-functionality with my tablet. And I haven't purchased a Pre for this reason, also. What gives? Congrats.

Would be nice if Palm would get to that mindset - they once has really good devices. The Palm Pre was not a “wow” but rather an “ouch” for me – another closed Linux device :(
