palmOne faces a problem - it's called Europe
eWeek features an interesting article which tries to explain why palmOne has been losing considerable market share in the European market.
At least in Europe, the Treo has been a failure. Officially, palmOne is trying to fend off the problem. According to a report on forbes.com, "Mark Hodgson, PalmOne's UK smartphone channel development manager, said: 'Because of the success of the Treo 600 in the US, our supplies have been limited. The smartphone is a mass-market device, but the Treo appeals to business.'" What is Hodgson trying to tell us? That people in Europe are not interested in business, or that palmOne is simply lacking the resource to expand? Either way, this is definitely not a good sign! |
