Don't Worry Palm, Everything's Going To Be OK
If two new paid fart apps in one day isn't a sign of a maturing App Catalog, I don't know what is. Rest easy, Rubinstein. For once. [Palm] -

webOS 1.3.1 Available Now
Nothing game changing, just bug fixes and small tweaks. Don't expect one of Palm's infamous syncing hacks, because iTunes support is nowhere to be found. Fire up your updaters, 1.3.1 is live now. [BGR, GadgetsOnTheGo, thanks Jimmie!] -

Dear Palm Treo 650 With Android: You Are Inspiring
One of the most exciting things about Android was the idea that it could be ported back to older handsets. This turned out to be harder than expected, except or a few HTCs and, amazingly, a Palm Treo from 2004. More » -

Palm's Pixi Up Close: A Gallery
The Palm Pixi's oddly hard-bodied for a phone that's otherwise appropriately named. Even the matte rubber back feels stiff, and unforgiving. But the keyboard reminds me of Rice Krispies. In a good way. More » -

Walmart Hacks the Palm Pixi's Price Down to Size: $30 at Launch
It looks like retailers are going to have to do what Palm won't: Make the Palm Pixi genuinely cheap, or at least cheaper than the Pre. For example! Walmart's already cut the Pixi's price from $100 to $30—pre-launch. More » -

DIY Palm TouchStone Car Mount: Death to All Cables
A modder managed to wire Palm's TouchStone inductive charger directly into his car's battery, giving his Pre both a simple mount solution and wireless charging. Makes tossing a phone into a cupholder seem so inelegant, doesn't it? [EverythingPre via MAKE] -

Creepiness Strangely Absent From New Palm Pixi Commercial
After dying in a movie, apparently the creepy Pre girl died in Palm's world, too. This new Pixi ad is full of fun, happy people using the phone while "Sleepyhead" by Passion Pit plays in the background. Huge improvement. -

Palm Gives Pre Developers a Stupid-Simple Tool to Make Stupid-Simple Apps
It's no secret that Palm's been taking it niiiice 'n slow with their app strategy, whatever it is. Here's their next baby step: Ares, a browser-based, drag-and-drop development toolkit for making simple apps. It's a marginally good idea! More » -

Apple and Palm: The iTunes Syncing Fight Is Officially Dumb
OK Palm, it was cute the first time you cracked iTunes to sync with the Pre. And Apple, I guess I can understand why you'd want to keep control over your software. But really guys? Still? You look silly. More » -

How Palm Lost (Like Apple in the '80s)
The Droid, and Android 2.0 as a whole, isn't going to kill the iPhone. That's ridiculous. Teamed with the iPhone, though, it just straight up murdered Palm—the same way that Microsoft brought Apple to its knees decades ago. More » -

Behold, the Unkillable Palm Pre
Decapitation is the classic zombie assassination method. It kills them dead, usually. Zak snapped his Palm Pre in half, and it still lives. Lesson being, unless you completely sever the head from the body, it'll keep on cutting. Thanks Zak! -

Palm Pixi Lands on Sprint November 15th, For $100
Sprint's just gone public with its plans for the Pixi: a single c-note, payable November 15th. It's not the aggressive, bottom-scraping pricing I was hoping to see for Palm's second, daintier webOS device, and just $50 less than the Pre.

The App Store Effect: Are iPhone Apps Headed for Oblivion?
It's uncanny. When known software gets repackaged for iPhones and iPod Touches and passes through the hallowed gates of the App Store, something happens: Almost invariably, it gets cheaper. Waaay cheaper. Good right? Well, not always. More » -

Palm Doesn't Want You To Buy Too Many Apps
There have been mentions of odd limits on how many apps you can install on your Palm Pre. Now there are whispers that Palm is ignoring this issue entirely. What gives, Palm? Don't want to profit from app sales? More » -

Palm Pixi Could Hit Sprint, Best Buy on October 20
Boy Genius has word from an anonymous source that the Palm Pixi should be hitting all Sprint and Best Buy locations on October 20. Few other details are offered up on Palm's second WebOS phone, but if it's going to come out before the end of the year, the date seems logical. [BGR] -

Is The Palm Pre Tanking?
Palm says that they sold about 810,000 Palm Pre units. However, that figure may be bogus, according to analyst David Eller. He says that this includes all units sold to resellers, not only activated Pres. This may spell t-r-o-u-b-l-e: More » -

Palm App Catalog Just As Crappy for Developers As the App Store
I know Palm is fond of emulating Apple in certain respects, but why they're also copying the App Store's developer-hostility is beyond me. Jamie Zawinski's epic quest to get his free, open source applications into the App Catalog is maddening. More » -
