What's that? Pummel everyone into submission? So if Palm ends up being a sort of combo *nix/Mac of the handheld market, it's still not going to go away.

But frankly, I think MS is still at a serious disadvantage in the PDA market... One of the big reasons Windows became and remains SO dominant over Mac in the PC market is the pricing issue on the hardware, and WinCE machines are at the top end of PDA pricing. Don't know about software pricing between the two plaforms, but the free/sub$20 software resources available to the Palm market are huge. And Palm isn't making the MacOS mistake of limiting their OS only to their own hardware.
