Comments on: Motorola to Release Palm-Based Smartphone in 2002
Palm and Motorola have announced that they will collaborate in creating a tri-band GSM smartphone that will run the Palm OS. The companies say the device will contain a larger color screen than standard mobile phones, include Palm's HotSync and over-the-air synchronization using Motorola's Starfish TrueSync software, and feature General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) compatibility. It is expected to be the first in a series of smartphones from the two companies, and will be sold through Motorola in 2002.

So's PalmOS can have elements of a real-time OS for live threaded comms, at a guess.

Palm Smartphone Running Epoc?
http://www.zdnet.co.uk/news/2000/38/ns-18085.html
What has me confused is the article announces without blinking an eye that the Palm/Motorola smartphone will run the Epoc operating system, which doesn't make a darn bit of sense to me. Why would Palm collaborate on an Epoc device? Is this a misprint?
