Well, if they *did* consider it, it doesn't show, and again, they didn't communicate any of that. “They never considered day 2″ – excellent point.

That plan included keeping the phone from devs who would need to be in line day of release. They never considered Day 2 after launch and it shows. Palm had an opening while the features of the G3 iPhone aren't available on AT&T. Soon, iPhone will be available on another network and/or AT&T will announce support for the missing features and the window will close. Palm knows how to loose an opportunity - anyone want to buy my Palm VII? I think Palm’s marking team was so afraid of not selling out, they went to great length to make sure it would happen.
