A couple of interesting excerpts:

1) Questions regarding faster processors and higher resolution screens were answered with a variety of explanations included limitations in the OS (the OS is be completely rewritten for the 5th generation of Palms planned for release in 2002) and the trade-off of cost and battery life along with the fact that Palm is following along the basic philosophy of "Less is more" rather than the Microsoft philosophy of the everything you need already built in design.

2) Palm is concentrating on the "casual non-power user" of the devices with the capabilities for third party expansion so that everyone can get the most out of the devices in the manner that best fits each individual user.
