In case you hadn’t heard, Palm is formally splitting up into two companies: PalmSource which develops the Palm operating system, and Palm Solutions Group, which will make handhelds and hardware. The spinoff of PalmSource won’t be done for a few more months, but Palm Solutions Group, to avoid the inevitable confusion, is changing its name. The new moniker is expected to be announced sometime later this week. And while after the Handspring merger the obvious pick would be PalmSprings or something like that, Brighthand expects that the new name will won’t have the word “Palm” in it at all.
