New chips do no good...

Oh great, hardware fragmentation.
Unless ARM works on EXACTLY the same instruction set, Palms just became a totally useless device!
That is, unless you want to buy more apps that will not work on your next device (or run the risk that apps bought for the next device won't work on its replacement either)...
Suddenly, you have to worry about whether the app you downloaded/bought will work on your processor!
Make no mistake, they said "SOME" not all. This means that Os4.0 will have to run on 2 different processors.
Sounds like a neat idea, but anyone shopping for software for a Alpha running NT will realize that nothing good is down that road.
And let's not forget about the burden to the programmers who may or may not be able to afford a cross platform compiler (and thus may not be able to deliver apps for one processor or the other!)
For those who think I'm out to lunch, find a WinCE device owner, and ask them what kind of a problem different processors causes.
