/ A Look Back At the Qool QDA-700 Palm OS Phone
PDA247 recently acquired a relic of the Palm OS past and has posted an interesting retro review. The device in question is a Qool QDA-700 a Palm OS smartphone from 2004 that included a number of innovative features for its time but never seemed to gain much market acceptance. Shaun says in his video review (embedded after the break) that he purchased the device for the bargain price of £25. The Qool QDA-700 was a Palm OS Garnet based smartphone based on a reference design by PiTech. It was first announced in Sept 2004 and later became available in limited quantities in Europe, the Middle East and Asia. The device included robust multimedia capabilities for its time such as a 1.3-megapixel camera, 2.8-inch color QVGA (240x320) display and a built in mp3 and mp4 video applications. It even featured support for Wi-Fi cards via its SD slot.

/ Palm Faces Strong Competition as Stock Drops
Longtime PDA and phone manufacturer Palm had a rough day Friday. Although the stock exchange rose sharply in the wake of news that the U.S. government was stepping in to stabilize the financial markets, Palm's stock fell nearly eight percent, to $7.83. The drop was driven by the release of Palm's fiscal first quarter results. The company said its revenue rose less than two percent, to $366.9 million, while its quarterly loss rose to $41.9 million, or 39 cents a share. Overall, the first-quarter report was better than anticipated (even Palm officials had predicted declining revenue), but analysts raised concerns about whether Palm can remain competitive in an increasingly crowded smartphone market. Palm 'Slow to Adapt' Greg Sterling, founding principal of Sterling Market Intelligence, said Palm is wrestling with consumers' perception of a tired brand. "Palm helped create the smartphone market with its Treo line," Sterling said, "but the company has been slow to adapt to a new competitive marketplace. The dynamics don't look as good from a consumer or business perspective." Sterling said the Palm Treos have been popular and the Palm Treo Pro should be well received. But, he added, there's a lot of new smartphones competing for consumer attention. "I think it's a fairly straightforward situation in the marketplace," Sterling said. "There's a lot more competition for the same smartphone dollars. Both Apple, obviously, and RIM have stepped up their efforts by introducing more phones and more features, targeted at both consumers and business users. And in the coming week, we'll see the rollout of the first Android-driven phone. It's tough for Palm to attract attention." No Carrier Support? One factor hampering the Treo Pro is that Palm has not yet signed a marketing agreement with a major telecommunications carrier. Instead, Palm will sell the device unlocked, which means it can be used on multiple networks...

/ Palm Treo Pro Finds A US Carrier, Is It AT&T? [Treo Pro]
Palm announced in their quarterly call that it had found an unnamed carrier to sell their new Treo Pro, but declined to mention who, specifically, would peddle the $550 phone (at a potentially subsidized cost). WM Experts seem to think the carrier will be AT&T, which makes enough sense, since AT&T tends to get the big Palm GSM phones first in the US. Though details on pricing and availability were scant, WM Experts thinks it won't hit until December at the earliest (due to AT&T's leaked roadmap today), and Wired believes the subsidized price that comes along with being locked on the AT&T network will bring it down into the 200-300 dollar range. So far, however, this is all speculation. [WM Experts via BGR via Gadget Lab]
