ZDNet on Palm/Be

August 16th, 2001

ZDNet: Palm busy buying software maker Be. Some notes on legacy applications and licenses:

Be’s future with the eVilla appears shaky.

“The OS will continue to be supported within eVilla,” Sony spokeswoman Gretchen Griswold said. However, Griswold said, how that will occur is unclear. Among the options under consideration is having Palm support the eVilla OS, she said.

However, Palm said it has no plans to further develop the Be operating system as a standalone OS.

“We don’t plan to take on the Sony license for eVilla. We may decide to provide some transitional support for Sony if we can structure it appropriately,” Somsak said.
