According to the Toronto Star newspaper, Handspring Inc. wants to work with rival Research In Motion Ltd. to make its wireless products compatible with RIM software.
The newspaper quoted Handspring's President as saying that it was logical for his firm's wireless devices to use e-mail software developed by RIM, which is best known for its BlackBerry e-mail pager.
Handspring's president apparently told the paper that As companies that make PDAs add more wireless features to their equipment they will want proven technology to handle wireless e-mail, and that leads him to RIM.
What does this mean for Handspring? Will they scrap the Palm OS? Will they make a Blackberry compatible device? We'll see.
