Palm is set to preview this week its latest incarnation of mobile operating system - [B]Nova [/B]- in a bid to re-ignite the company as a smartphone leader. Latest developments say that Palm will also release a new device that runs Nova as well. The unveiling is expected during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2009, which starts on Thursday, January 8 in Las Vegas.$ b7 h4 [% M0 S9 o* i6 x

In anticipation of this week's event, Jon Rubinstein, Palm's executive chairman revealed last month in a BusinessWeek interview a few details on the Nova OS. However, CrunchGear found out last night - from a "trusted source" - that Palm will release a new device as well on Thursday.& u( H. e; C5 L6 H6 E5 |

The new Palm smartphone is said to feature a full QWERTY keyboard, but unlike previous models, the keyboard will slide down under a large touchscreen. CrunchGear also speculates that the device will be sourced by HTC, same as the Treo Pro. Taiwan-based HTC also manufactured the T-Mobile G1 (Google Phone) and many other Windows Mobile based devices for wireless carriers in the U.S. and Europe.# k2 [9 q% p$ z/ c/ l4 o0 |& R0 v3 r

It is still unclear whether the new Palm device will focus on the consumer or on the corporate market. Palm is expected to put in the new phone a plethora of apps, ranging from media playback to the usual PIM such as email, calendar and contacts, probably to show off the capabilities of its long-expected OS.

Palm has struggled in 2008 and reported a loss of over $500 million for the second quarter of this fiscal year together with a 13 percent drop in sales. After a $100 million cash infusion in December, the Nova OS and the along-coming handset are probably Palm's last hope to gain some share in the smartphone market dominated by innovators such as Apple and Research In Motion.[/FONT]
