Dow Jones Description

So what exactly is the Palm blog about and who will be contributing to it? We're going to be flexible and broad on topics because we have a lot of stuff to talk about. The "who" is just about anyone at Palm, from interns to execs. Some days our posts will be educational about our products and other days thought-provoking about our vision and ever-changing market dynamics. How about even generating a few laughs and some "spirited" conversations - we're game for that. We might even provide a peek behind the Palm curtain. And finally, what self-serving company blog would be complete without some insight into the company's employees and culture? Over time, all of the above will be covered. Please feel free to share your thoughts with us (comments are welcome - see below for comment policy) because we certainly plan to share our thoughts with you. Palm Blog Comment Policy: Comments are welcome and encouraged. Please make sure to keep comments relevant to the blog post (this applies to any links that may be included). Rude, wasteful, off-topic, privacy-intruding or libelous comments will be deleted. Customer Support: If you have any questions regarding a Palm device you have purchased your best bet is to contact Palm Customer Support or visit: http://www.palm.com/us/support/using.html.
