It sure sounds assholish but it is very well possible he knew that Palm was actively poaching and blatantly disregarding existing NDAs. Palm's CEO writes a fairly well measured e-mail but it is still a political dance.

NDAs should certainly be adhered to but non-compete clauses should be illegal and certainly never enforced.
