This should help COMS and looks inevitable: From CNET NEWS "Apple continues to ponder coming out with multicolored Palm handhelds under its own name, although the project has been put on the back burner to ensure that its new consumer portable gets out the door. Prototypes of a handheld organizer, which use 3Com's Palm operating system, have been spotted around the company's Cupertino, California, headquarters, said sources close to the company. Like the iMac, the Palm-based devices, if released, would come in a variety of colors and be marketed under the Apple brand. For 3Com, the deal has precedent: Palm Computing makes an organizer that has IBM's name on it. For Apple, the move signals an ongoing interest in a market it pioneered, then abandoned in 1997 with the cancellation of the Newton handheld computer. Because the development is largely controlled by Palm, a Palm licensing strategy presents far less risk for Apple."
