Palm will announce something big at CES 2009
December 11, 2008 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

Not only Microsoft will be unveiling something new at CES 2009! (Microsoft is rumored to unveil there their Zune phone - for USA only - first hardware foray of Microsoft into mobile phone industry - with accelerometer and with music service on it)

CES 2009 - the biggest Consume Electronics Show in USA - takes place January 8-11 2009, and it looks like Palm will reveal something major there too:

Several journalists and online writers have received invitation to an event that takes place 11:00am, what indicates major announcement (rather than evening time, that indicates a schmoozing party only).

The content of this invitiation is:

Yep, it's that time.
Come to CES
to see all the Palm New-ness
you've been waiting for

By Invitation Only


What it could be? Most likely: the first Palm smartphone powered by their new operating system Nova - next generation Palm OS.

However we think that there are other possibilities:
  • Palm will announce keyboard-less touch-screen phone to compete with iPhone, possibly powered by Windows Mobile
  • acquisition of Palm by some other company, possibly HTC or Nokia, will be announced
Commentary: the next big event with all the biggest annoucements in mobile phone industry is Mobile World Congress 2009 (MWC, formerly called "3GSM") in February in Barcelona, EU. The CES is more focused on consumer electronics, than on mobile phones and only the fact that both CES and Palm are American, may mean that for Palm the CES is more important than MWC (located in EU but global event), and that Palm will prefer to have biggest announcement at CES! Since Palm is one of the best well known Windows Mobile manufacturers (for many HTC still is not a known brand), we will be watching this announcement with attention - stay tuned!
