Its only upsetting because its untrue and I do put a lot of work into this site. I select titles that I think are fitting and yes... interesting. I still don't think the title was off based and I'm sorry if you do. That's all.

I still don’t think the title was off based and I’m sorry if you do. That’s all.

But almost every (let's say 90%) of the Android sites and blogs refuted the delay news once they were outed. Also you can't be one of the ONLY siteS. You can be one of the very few siteS, if you believe they were few. Again what does this prove, regarding your Palm Android "attempt"? I'm just saying I really don't like twisting news and reports into titles that gain fake hits. It's like that website everyone deleted from their bookmarks that said HTC was prepping an MID, based on a diplomatic answer to an open question. Maybe it's bothering me more because I was not expecting that from your site, which is one of the better looking Android websites. I'm not usually vocal about cheap shots, I'm sorry to say. Not that I was expecting you to admit it was, but believe it or not, I would have easily ignored it and moved on, but I'd hate to see this Android website "go cheap" if you know what I mean. So despite it's poor delivery, that was just some constructive criticism. So please you grow up and don't take *that* direction with future writings. I’m sorry if I upset you.

I could go into detail but its tough to have an intelligent discussion with someone who seems to know your own motives better than you do. I'm proud of the body of work here... we cover what we think is worthwhile... we were one of the ONLY sites to call out the whole "android is delayed" rampage as BS while everyone else was busy whoring out linkbait articles and titles. Check the record. Grow up. You’re wrong… plain and simple. I could go into detail but its tough to have an intelligent discussion with someone who seems to know your own motives better than you do.

Palm OS II -2 years in dev- remains the only thing that would bring back life to Palm. The fact that its developers worked on Apple's UI hypes it up a lot more. I read a lot of blogs linking to Engadget's Android proposal to Palm.... months ago. None used anything near to "Palm Android phone in 2009?" as a title. I guess 100% of the readers would have presumed you had a leak, a whistle-blower, or a tipster at Palm telling you Palm was readying an Android phone, to only find reference to a really old article from engadget. You know androidguys is down now (their server can't handle the traffic), so your site would be most likely getting more hits, and finding that article up there says no good about the site's legitimacy/credibility for many potential newcomers these next hours.

The article highlights the reasons WHY they should and aligns some interesting facts. A little something called PUNCTUATION can completely alter the purpose/intention/tone of a sentence. Note that the title of this article uses a QUESTION MARK and not a PERIOD or EXCLAMATION MARK. It is posing an interesting idea, not making a statement, and is to be intended as such. Maybe you want to re-read the title a few times. And then re-read this quote a few times: "Perhaps Palm’s flagship device of 2009 will feature an all new Palm OS. In fact, its more than likely given the nature of corporate egos. But all the evidence says that Palm SHOULD be thinking about Android and FAST. So the question remains… will/when will a Palm sport Android?" Before you clumsily criticize an article perhaps you should take the time to actually read it.

I can't believe you're using this suggestion as a foundation for an article titled, "A Palm Android Phone in 2009". The things people do to get attention.

The one that has been in development for more than 2 years, postponed time and again? The iphon-ish OS from ex-Apple developers? Why is everyone mistaking any news regarding a "new OS" for Android?

Why is everyone mistaking any news regarding a “new OS” for Android?
