Palm screws up

2001-09-21 16:48:56+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Via Doc Searls, Palm has screwed up big-time by demanding a name change from third party Palm fan sites. So now, rather than changing to the preferred Palm OS name and logo, those running the sites have said things like Jim McCarthy, proprietor of what used to be PalmGuru.com and is now PocketAnywhere.com: "I decided it would be best for me to change my name because I never wanted this issue to rise up again." We've seen this over and over again, if you let the dipshit lawyers get involved, you'll see what would be a nice small company try to become a huge company on the basis of its ability to piss off its customers. That only works short term.
