Palm throws Virtual Developer Lab doors wide open

For the legions of developers anxious to use their talents to build for Palm (yes, all four of you), listen up. By partnering with DeviceAnywhere, Palm has opened up its Virtual Developer Lab, which enables devs to remotely access actual Treo / Centro handsets in order to test out software, capture screen shots / video of processes, create an audit trail through the capturing of keystrokes and share data / collaborate with colleagues online. If you're swearing up and down that this stuff isn't new, you're not (entirely) crazy -- DeviceAnywhere has been offering up this remote demo access on a variety of handsets for quite some time. Palm's just making the extra effort to ensure you and your three pals know about it.

Palm 755p owner here chiming in. Cool idea, like 4 years late. And, isn't this the OS platform Palm's ditching in 6-12 months? I can't even get Palm to answer my e-mails and I just dropped coin on one of their devices just a few months ago....

BTW, the irony of it. A Java emulator for an OS that doesn't have Java support anymore........ meh.

@ChrisB:

Yep! That would be the bastard, redheaded stepchild, Palm. Poor thang. ;)
