Both wireless carriers and third-party developers are currently holding devices with the new Palm "Nova" OS, Palm's CEO Ed Colligan said on a financial analysts' conference call yesterday. The first Nova phone will launch during the first half of 2009, he added.
But that's not all! Palm will keep making Windows Mobile devices, rolling out a new Treo Pro on a major US carrier (that probably isn't AT&T or T-Mobile) during the next quarter.
The Centro, 755p, and Palm's PDA lines, meanwhile, are pretty much dead. Palm will keep selling their PDAs as long as people want them, but they aren't developing any new ones, Colligan said.
Everybody expects Nova to be announced at Palm's CES press conference on Jan. 8, but the company still hasn't confirmed that. On the other hand, if they don't announce it then, they're toast.

Oh, this had better be good. This had better be really really good, or else just like Sascha says, Palm's done.
