Comments on: MyPalm Internet Portal Details Revealed

Palm, Inc.has announced that the public beta version of a new Internet portal for Palm users will be available for free December 25. It has been "optimized for the Palm VIIx handheld" but it will work with any Palm capable of making an Internet connection and OS 3.5. Important features of MyPalm in the beta or future versions include wireless synchronization with a calendar at home or work; web searching through Google; a link to personal e-mail accounts; access to more than 450 web clipping applications; modifying datebook, phone lists, and to-do lists on the web; automatic incorporation of events to the web-based datebook, such as movie listings and sporting events; scheduling group meetings with work and personal groups; and receiving personal reminders.

have they posted a URL to this new site yet? I'd like to see how this stacks up to similar services from other WSPs (OmniSky, GoAmerica)

So far, the only info available from Palm on this is the press release:
http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/micro_stories.pl?ACCT=153400&TICK=PALM&STORY=/www/story/11-13-2000/0001364950
I hope that really long URL comes through correctly.

Just out of curiousity, I went to http://www.MyPalm.com/ and it is a one page personal site showing a broken Palm V with a link to our Palm Graveyard. I then tried http://MyPalm.Palm.com/ and got a 404 error and http://MyPalm.Palm.Net/ is a blank page.
