Palm has finally admitted that they are working on a new version of the PalmOS based on linux. The revelation was made at today's Palm Investor Day event. This is not the Access Linux Platform (ALP) that is being worked on and is now giving out development kits to handset makers. Other announcements that fit with recent moves by the company were also made and are worth noting.

Palm OS 5 devices will still be released this year, but devices based on the Linux kernel should (my emphasis) be released by the end of 2007.
