Anyone know if Palm applications will still run on WebOS? I was looking at a Pre for a while because I could still sync it with Palm Desktop running on my PC. If it does this then I'm in and will switch off all the rest of the crap!
I might be a dinosaur, but I don't actually want everything on one device (be that smartphone, tablet or whatever) - I have been using Palm handhelds for about 10 years and really only want something that does what my current Tungsten E does - keep my useful data to hand and sync with my PC. I am prepared to accept that I might have to get this in a 'phone someday soon, but why do I have to sign up to on-line storage of all my appointments and address data as well? (Don't even talk about my emails - I'm sure my clients would love Google or Apple having all of those!)
Dinosaurs like me are keeping up the resale value of hoarded Palm's pretty much where they used to be (around US$200 for 'in-the-box' new) so there is some kind of market for this. I hope HP gives us some options.....

What about old Palm applications?
