Another look at the Palm OS on a Nokia N800

If you missed the big news out of Access earlier this week, you’ve got a do-over right now. The news is the release of a Palm OS Emulator beta for Nokia Internet Tablets. If you just can’t picture how that would look on a Nokia N800 or missed ThoughtFix’s video, have no fear, Palm Infocenter is here. Ryan has a six minute video demonstration and even though this is just a beta, it looks pretty good to me. I have yet to own a Palm device, but I just might get a taste of Palm OS apps on an N800 after watching this. Even more interesting to me is the continued trend towards virtualization. I’ve been watching it on PCs and Macs; now it’s making the move to handhelds.
