1) Link is broken. Actually, the link was already broken in the original Press Release. Very unprofessional.

2) The download has been available since September 2007. Why is this new?

Picky picky picky.

PALM's outsourced PR in recent history consistently has been less than the best - why stop a streak!

As far as not-new products being newly drumbeat about, though, PALM needs as much press as they can get - this one cost them next to nothing - money well spent.
