Comments on: Palm webOS 1.2 Leaked, Filmed — Browser is Much Improved http://gigaom.com/mobile/palm-webos-1-2-leaked-filmed-browser-is-much-improved/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 20:29:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Nameless http://gigaom.com/mobile/palm-webos-1-2-leaked-filmed-browser-is-much-improved/#comment-425025 Sun, 06 Sep 2009 23:51:48 +0000 http://jkontherun.com/?p=43423#comment-425025 I was excited for this update, only to learn that it also now permits Palm to delete apps remotely, without the user’s consent.
