I'm really disappointed to learn this. I've been really curious as to how Palm succeeded to make their apps based on javascript so fast as to be even comparable with iPhone apps. Turns out they haven't, they've just got really low standards as to what's good enough to ship. Really sad, I was hoping they'd be able to offer some strong competition for Apple.
