Palm OS 5 is currently in beta stage and might become "gold" (ready to be
released) at any time now.

The Palm community expects it to be released in June.

The first PalmOS 5 + ARM Palms will appear this fall. The chips are already
there, with Motorola, Texas Instruments and Intel already having PalmOS 5 ready
chips. Intel has announced a 400MHz XScale chips (can be used to build a Palm)
and the 800MHz and 1GHz versions are lurking.

For those who do not want to wait until this fall, Sony has just released a new
terrific PalmOS device. It has a 66MHz processor (wondering how much we will be
able to overclock it), a MP3 player, a 320x480 color screen, a keyboard, and
lots of nice features.

A must see: http://www.palminfocenter.com/
