PalmAddict interview with palmOne president

Alexander Turcic · 10-10-2004, 06:03 AM

Congrats to PalmAddict for an exclusive interview with palmOne's president Ed Colligan.
The exec firsts talks about the expansion of the Treo line. But my favorite part of the interview is when Colligan explains why the Tungsten T5 doesn't have WiFi:

Yes; WiFi is important, but our focus is on the WAN in the Enterprise, and the T5 reflects what that market is demanding from us, in terms of a solution. You know that we do have a WiFi device: the Tungsten C?

WOOW! Let's stop here for a moment. Did you hear what Colligan just said?

- we don't give a *!% about home consumers
- WAN and WiFi cannot coexist
- if you want WiFi, buy our ancient Tungsten C

What an eye-opener ;( At least palmOne was nice enough to tell us the truth (and thanks to PalmAddicts for making it possible), and perhaps there is our last chance to make some benefit out of it: to shorten palmOne stocks!
