RE: Palm Updates...
Palm has always done at least one update for all of their models. Now, whether it addressed an issue that you might have had is another story; they do make updates. In the case of PDAs, the T5 has had two updates, the LD one, the E2 probably to get one. The T3 had a few updates, as did the T2, T1, TE, and Zire71/72 models. From whence does your context come?

RE: Palm Updates...
The T1 NEVER got a ROM update despite there being enough room in non-EFIGS units to get most of the major bugfixes in there.
T|C never got any of the crucial OS or bundled app updates that could've given it another 6 months (or more!) or viable shelf life.
The LD's sole update is WORTHLESS for any of the myriad of issues that plague that model---lag, frequent crashes, non-multiple simultaneous button inputs, general system instabilities etc.
The Zire could've used a couple of software updates too but they wanted to put it out to pasture in order to push people to buy the Zire 72.
I'll say it again--Palm needs to institude a serious policy about releasing at least ONE major bugfix and ONE free "software" update (core/bundled ROM apps) per device. Then make upgrades (like from VersaMail 2.7 to 3.1) available to existing customers for a nominal fee.
Palm's ENCOURAGING casual piracy by making people resort to trickery like installing newer versions of Files/VM/WebPro from newer devices just to improve speed/stability on their older units. It'd be like having an old Dell PIII that was unable to run WinXP because of licensing issues with its bundled Win98...even if you were ready to pay for XP and had hardware that was up to spec!
