I may be going overboard on this

IMO, yes your are. Unless the deal gives the partners the right to sell to anybody they chose to (ie effectively license Manny, Moe and Jack w/o PALM's blessing) it amounts to little more than the partners will produce ARM variants with some embedded PALM-ROM. Which is about as "who cares?" as you can get in semis.

Toshiba wanted a license. PALM wouldn't sell them a license. Unless this deal changes that (which I don't see anywhere) it's still the same old story...
