Palm to Show New “Nova” OS at CES 2009

Peter Burrows at BizWeek has some hot news about Palm's new OS, Nova. The company hopes to fit their new system in the gap between the BlackBerry and the iPhone (good luck - Microsoft has been trying to do that all year) and they are looking to grab 2% of the middle-range market shere, the range that Google/Android is also gunning for. "If they can't show me a large, active audience, I'm not going to be interested," says Jeff Holden, CEO of Web 2.0 company Pelago, maker of a social networking tool for the iPhone. "At this point in the game, you're toast unless you have something completely unbelievable."
