Comments on: Palm Admits and Fixes OS 3.5 Bugs
Palm's recent OS 3.5.2 patch fixes the long rumored memory leak bug and a few other low level system issues as confirmed by this new Knowledge Base article. Also in today's news, cnet is reporting, "Next-generation Palms based on ARM chips would likely support higher-resolution color screens and more data-intensive applications, including wireless services. Palm has said that it is focusing almost exclusively on bringing wireless services to its devices in the next year." Though not confirmed, I would be on the lookout for the new M100 and VIIx to be out on Monday the 7th.

no big deal
no big deal with palm os, my ex-palm v was running fine. thinking of getting a new palm vx, but wait and see, so many choices, but I don't like visor, cheap plastic and colors for kids stuff.

if they open sourced palm os 4 then i could get a verson for my compaq aero. I could do something usefull with a powerfull palm os powerd machine.
It's about time...
I have had SO MANY problems with my Vx/3.5 unit. I would get a hardreset about once a week, The Vx would have a problem with an app and I would have to do a soft-reset. When I would do this I would get vertical flashing lines on my palm and the hard-reset screen would pop up. Palm TECH said the unit was fine and that there were no memory problems.
Once I grabbed the 3.5.2 patch, all the problems I once had with my Vx are no more.
Thanks for nothing Palm Tech.
RE: 3.S
The improvements are so slight. I have a Palm IIIc (with 3.5 of course) the differences between it and my friend's V and my IIIc are undectable (except for color, of course).
Unless you have color, I'd say don't bother.
We get kinda caught up in the "gotta have that upgrade" game. I blame microsoft.
The Palm's fine w/o 3.5.
