CNET: Palm OS Most Loved, Pocket PC Least Loved

According to the CNET Digital Living Gear Envy wrap-up, Palm OS devices are much more lusted after than Pocket PCs.

Of the top 5 "all-time most loved" gadgets, two ran on the Palm operating system: the Samsung SPH-i500 smartphone and the Sony CLIE PEG-UX50. None of the top 5 ran on Windows Mobile.

However, one of the "all-time least loved" devices was a Pocket PC, the HP iPaq H4350, which had votes of "53% left / 47% loved."

I hope Microsoft and the Windows Mobile OEMs keep coming out with new hardware, because it pushes Palm OS licensees to continue innovating and coming out with the best and most interesting devices (at least according to BusinessWeek).
