Matt, >>so do you think MSFT is trying to buy it with plans to close it, if it can be closed? << Most probably considering how they've done things in the past. Just live JAVA, they'd tie the software to the hardware...MSFT software would work only on the Palm. Maybe they'll use the Palm OS as a replacement of the MSFT CE. I wonder how MSFT would go about make the Palm "the Compaq Computer of the hand-held market."? I wonder if it might be worth it? The Palm could be the biggest hand-held phone for starters. China will be a massive market in a few years for hand-held phones..... RE: COMS breaking 32. I wonder if the MMs store up a bunch of buy orders somehow and unleash them when the time is right, so as to break through 32. joe
