Here’s a video overview of me showing TealPoint’s TealOS program. It brings the Palm Pre’s webOS look and feel to the Treo and Centro line as well as to Palm’s hand held PDAs. UPDATE: This product is no longer for sale. TealPoint was asked by Palm to stop selling the product and complied.

I was looking up information about Apple’s new firmware update (mentioned below) when I came across the website “CultofMac.com” and a story about a Japanese farmer who created apples with Apple logos and products on them.

Since the iPhone arrived in the United States almost everyone has been enamored with it. I say almost everyone because I know at least one person who did not want one, me. I wanted to see, play with, and hold the phone, but I have not really wanted one. Oh sure, it looks cool, but [...]
