  • I can join the hotel's wifi on my iPad but the iPhone says the password is incorrect, even though it isn't.

    This is driving me nuts. They've reset the router but that hasn't helped. I've tried so many times, yet still it keeps saying incorrect password, when it just isn't. Same problem with my wife's iPhone - and both are happy to join other wifi networks. Any advice or suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Generally when attempting to join the public wifi at a hotel, it requires you to open a browser window to enter the username and password. Is that happening? Since it would affect all of your wifi settings, I'm hesitant to recommend going into Settings, General, Reset, Reset network settings, but that might be necessary. Have you tried to do a reset on the iPhone? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release?. See if this helps.

  • Dual-Monitor wacom setup with nvidia proprietary driver

    Hello dear ArchLinux community. I'm new to this forum and very happy to join this great community.
    I'll cut right to the chase.
    I want to buy a Wacom Cintiq (tablet with integrated monitor) in the near future, and am therefore looking into issues I might have with the setup.
    The desired configuration would have the tablet as well as a 24" screen hooked up to my geforce gtx275 in dualhead mode, with the input from the tablet mapped to the screen area of the tablet.
    I've done a bit of testing for that matter with my old Wacom Bamboo and a second monitor.
    Mapping a tablets input to a screen is very simple IN THEORY.
    With the linuxwacom drivers you can map the tablet to one X screen (as displayed by xrandr).
    The problem is that nvidia uses Twinview for dualheaded systems, which presents X with only one big screen, rather that two individual ones.
    (mind you, this all worked like a charm with fglrx/intel)
    I tried switching to nouveau, but this doesn't work for two reasons:
    1.: Nouveau presents two individual screens to X when dualheaded, so I can use linuxwacom's MapToOuput.
    What happens then is that, as soon as I use the stylus, the mapping starts to shift rapidly between one screen and the whole area. I haven't figured out, what exactly does that, but it makes it impossible to do anything with the tablet
    2.: Nouveau, even with mesa, just has no 3d acceleration for my card. Since I do a lot of 3d work it just doesn't work for me.
    Three other possibilities would be
    1.: To try and disable Twinview/use something else. I have no idea if or how this works, though.
    2.: To restrict the mapping area of the tablet in some other way. Again, no idea how to do this.
    3.: To use two X sessions - one for either monitor. As far as I know this robs me of the ability to drag windows from one screen to another. Also, I don't know how Gnome3 would react to it AND I don't know how to properly configure it. PLEASE ADVISE
    A last resort would be to buy an ATI card along with the Tablet (after all, if I'm going to shell out $2000 for a tablet I might as well add $150 to make sure it works).
    With this I run into another problem, though, because Gnome3 and fglrx WON'T COOPERATE (please correct me if I'm wrong. I would LOVE to see a solution to these graphical glitches)
    The actual question to you, fellow Arch users, is which of these solutions - if any - I should go for, and how to best execute it.
    Any other suggestions would be great, too.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Sincerely,
    Gabriel [liveag].

    You may not be SOL with TwinView. Do either of these links help?

  • Can Retake Quiz button take me to 3rd question slide of the project?

    Hi,
    I am happy to join this forum. I hope anyone of you answer my question.
    I am using captivate 4. I am not storing score onto any LMS.
    I am developing an e-learning course of 30 slides. First 20 slides are content slides. I have 2 question slides as 14th and 15th slides. I don't want these 2 questions be part of my main Quiz which starts from 21st onwards which has 10 question slides. The quiz result page has "Retake Quiz Button" which is taking to the 14th slide which I dont want. Actually Retake Quiz button should take me to 21st slide only.(..and all the question slides in my course showing "Question x of 12". But I want this to show "Question x of 10" only). Because I have used 2 question slides (14th and 15th) to check the user for better understanding.
    Can anyone help me out.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Manoharan.A

    Welcome to the forum,
    Each Captivate file, if you enable scoring will report a total score, in your case the score of the 'pre' questions and of the 'real' questions. Same with the progress (which you can disable).
    Since your pretest only has 2 slides, to achieve your goal without having to create multiple files (pretest or final test separated from the main course), I would propose not to use the default Question slides for the pre-test, but to create them using standard objects, variables and advanced actions. This is perfectly possible for the most Question types, so which type did you use for the pre-test: true/false, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank...? Instead of reporting the score the usual way (they get stored in the system variable cpQuizInfoPointsScored), I would store the results of the pre-test in a variable.
    Both your issues will be solved: when retaking the Quiz, since only regular Question slides are considered as a Quiz, you will be taken to the first Question slide and the progress will be as you want it to be.
    If you want to go this way, and need more help, please post your questions. I did publish some articles on use of variables and advanced actions but examples were made with CP5 (principles are the same). Captiv8r (moderator of this forum) has a gooberguide about Advanced actions (for CP4) that could be of great help:

  • XML Error in Oracle 10g Express

    Hello!
    First of, I would like to say that Oracle XE is quite an excellent product. I am happy to join this community to learn more about the product and hopefully in the future to help others out as well.
    And now, to my question:
    Database:
    Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Product
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
    CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production

    I am following the instructions in Oracle® Database Express Edition 2 Day Plus Application Express Developer Guide Release 2.1 to create a web service. The instructions are:
    Application Builder --> Shared Components --> Under Logic, select Web Service References (The Web Service References page appears) --> Click Create.
    When prompted whether to search a UDDI registry to find a WSDL, select Yes and click Next --> For UDDI Location, select IBM UDDI and click Next --> For Search Type, select Business Name --> In Name, enter: %xMethods%
    However, when I complete the above steps, I get the following error:
    ORA-31011: XML parsing failed ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing LPX-00104: Warning: element "html" is not declared in the DTD Error at line 2
    Can you please advise as to the steps needed to troubleshoot this error - i.e. Where should I begin looking to attempt to resolve this?
    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello Igor,
    if you want to finish the example for the XiginitFutures you have to specify the URL for the service directly
    Therefore when you create a Shared Component
    - select Web Service References
    - Create
    - When prompted whether to search a UDDI registry insted of accepting the default now choose No and click Next
    - For WSDL-Position enter http://www.xignite.com/xFutures.asmx?WSDL
    - Next
    - Finish

  • Import photos from CD to iPhoto Album directly

    Hi,
    I am a new Mac user and happy to join the Apple community.
    I have photos that are already organized into folders/subfolders and are stored in CD. Now what I would like to do is to directly import the photos to iPhoto Albums and keep the folder structures and names.
    For example, say that I have 2 root folders(A and B) on the CD and folder A contains A1 and A2, folder B contains B1.
    How do I make iPhoto automatically create Album named A which have A1 and A2 sub Albums when I copy/import the photo from the CD?
    I have read tutorial about importing to last roll then drag drop photos to create new album. However, it will requires lots of work that way since I already have all the photos organized on disk.
    Second question: Is it a good practice to go to Finder and copy the entire file structures into iPhoto library? Is there any tutorial that explains how Mac organize the file structure?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help in advance
    New Mac User
      Mac OS X (10.4.5)  
      Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Hi iMac User,
    For your first question of keeping your own folder structure, you might want to check out iPhoto 6.
    The following information can help you with iPhoto 5 and iPhoto 6 if you choose to import photos into iPhoto's database.
    Importing Images from the hard drive, CD, or DVD
    To import a folder with subfolders of images maintaining the same organizational structure (or close to it):
    Drag the folder into iPhotos viewing area.
    A film roll will be created with each sub folders name. To view the rolls in the Library you need to first go to the menu bar and choose View>by film rolls.
    To make each roll into an Album, highlight the tile of the roll
    Go to File>new album from selection.
    You will now have an Album in the source column with the images from that roll. Do this for each roll if you want them to be an Album. This is your choice.
    Next, go to the menu bar and hit File>new folder
    Name this new folder with the year or whatever the name was of the Parent folder containing the subfolders that you had dragged into iPhotos viewing area.
    Next drag all the Albums into the respective new Parent folder you just made.
    Albums- collection of images from one roll or many rolls. The Albums will be listed in your source column when you make them. The albums only contain placeholders for the images that are still in the library. They are not duplicates.
    Rolls- rolls are created when you import folder of images. It will be given the name of the folder you are importing.
    Rolls are also created from each import from your camera. You are given the option to name the roll at import.
    Folder-a folder you create manually using the File>new folder command
    Folders can hold Albums, slideshows, books, another folder, etc.
    One other way you can import a folder of images and have an Album created for it as the same time it is imported as a roll in the Library view:
    Drag each folder of images into the source column of iPhoto. When you see the plus sign, drop it in the source column.
    An album will be created in the source column, and the roll that the album was created from will be in the library view window.
    Hope this helps!
    answer to second question:
    Two Apple kbs for you to read
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
    About the iPhoto Library folder
    File structure of iPhoto 5 Library in the Finder:
    This is a view of how the iPhoto Library looks in the Finder.
    It is organized by Year folders. Inside the Year folders are Month folders. Inside the Month folders are the days of the Month. Inside the day folders are the photos you took on that day. If you imported video clips and RAW files on that day they will be in an Originals folder. If you have edited any photo imported on that day, the original will be in that folder also.
    File structure of iPhoto Library 6 folder in Finder:
    iPhoto 6 Library folder in the Finder
    As you can see the structure is now related to rolls. Rolls are created for each folder you import and each import session from a camera.
    It is very easy to change the names of film rolls within iPhoto to make them easier to find images within. Open the info panel in iPhoto by clicking on the "i" icon. Once it is opened, click on the roll title in the viewing window.
    Click on the word "title" in the info pane and type in your new title. I like to use a date and text format such as 12/25/05 Christmas at Mom's, 1/05/06 my birthday, etc. Once the roll names are changed within iPhoto, they are also changed within the Finder, making it easy to locate an image.
    When importing from a camera, make sure you name the roll with a date and text before the import.
    A lot more info that you might need to know:
    --First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
    If you have already put files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder then you will also find out that if you try to import them into iPhoto you will get an error message. No worry, just drag them to the desktop and import from there.
    --All images that you import are shown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
    --You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
    -- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
    You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
    Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
    -- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
    There is now one copy of each of the pictures. (DO NOT HAVE IPHOTO DELETE THE IMAGES FROM YOUR CAMERA! DELETE THEM MANUALLY WITH THE CAMERA-if something goes wrong with the import and they are never imported and then they are deleted from the camera you might end up losing those images)
    You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
    cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
    Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
    in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
    (a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
    3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
    You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
    photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
    pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
    Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
    to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
    have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
    Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
    picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
    I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.
    Two Apple kbs for you to read
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
    About the iPhoto Library folder
    Don't forget that in Library view you can Control click on any picture and get a contextual menu with many options. One is to revert to original.

  • ABAP Development and "End User License"

    Hi all,
    I'm happy to join to SDN!!!
    I newbe in the forum, and therefore I don't know if I post in the right section.
    I'm a Netweaver Architect and ABAP Developer.
    In the past I worked as java developer, and with other programming languages.
    I have a doubt: is it possible (or forbidden by SAP AG??) to develop an ABAP package (which, obiousvly, contains Z / Y Abap objects) and apply an "End User License" on it, i.e. on the ABAP code written? (I mean that the copryrights are mine, and I give an "End User License" to my customers (that buy the license), in order to get and run my abap code). I would avoid to sell my Abap package, but, if possibile, I would only give it according a "Use License".
    May I do this thing without any problems, or have I to consider other aspects, like ask to SAP to reserve a namespace, or obtain SAP Netweaver certification for my ABAP solution, or other things?
    (Infact the "End User License" that I mean is different from "SAP End User License")
    Please, let me know your opinion and how or who could solve my matter.
    Many thanks to all.

  • Unable to see/use the play bar in Captivate

    Hello,
    I'm happy to join you on this forum, as I have tried to find
    (and did :)) answers for some of the problems I have experienced
    when learning how to use the Adobe tools.
    The latest issue I've encountered was when trying to view a
    Captivate presentation.
    It was already published on the Connect server and it could
    be perfectly viewed on my computer.
    However, an user I have sent the URL to tells me that he
    could see and use no play bar (!!!)
    Therefore, the actions like pause, go back and forth etc.
    were no longer available for him.
    What do you think?
    Is there something missing from the PC system that could not
    allow the good "reading" of my Captivate movie or....?
    Thank you very much for your answer and help!
    Regards,
    Oana

    Hi Oana
    This would seem to indicate that possibly the link provided
    to your other person was perhaps pointing to the main movie .SWF
    file and not the HTML file. Can you check to ensure where the link
    was pointing?
    With Captivate 2, at the basic level of output, you should
    see four files:
    * One is a .SWF containing your main movie. Perhaps named
    MainMovie.SWF
    * One is a .SWF containing the playback controls for the
    skin. Perhaps named MainMovie_skin.SWF
    * One is a JavaScript file named standard.js
    * One is an HTML file that you should point your user to.
    Perhaps named MainMovie.HTM
    Those typical four files (and sometimes more) should all
    exist on the server where everyone links to watch the movie. The
    fact the main part of the movie is being viewed by your user
    indicates that everything they need is installed and working
    properly on their PC. It seems to indicate there are possible files
    missing from the server. Not from the aspect of server
    functionality, but from the aspect of what you need to make sure
    ends up there so the Captivate movie can play and find all the
    components.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Best piece of advice for "New to COLOR"...

    Sort of like a position statement:
    I have been monitoring this forum since it started, having used FT for a bit more than a year now... and having been a dedicated daVinci/telecine colorist for 13 years...and an on-line editor for nearly 20 years before that.
    Best piece of advice I can offer to new users of COLOR is:
    (Drum Roll) Read the Manual! (Cymbal crash!)
    NB: It's good. My compliments to the writer (who is known to the TIG).
    So many queries have been posted here that are answered right there in print -- it depresses me to think that maybe Apple are quite right not to include it as a physical article, as so few apparently can afford to peruse it. Even available as a pdf than can be queried on the spot...
    Count yourselves extremely fortunate, spoiled, in fact. There was NO MANUAL for Final Touch (to speak of) and less than a handful of people who actually knew what they were doing.
    This is a very complex application dedicated to an enormously subtle and exacting task, and the number of ways that it can be used and abused is evidenced by the number of 'bugs' that are being complained about.
    Color correction, or grading, is very unlike editing, to voice an opinion, having done both at length. Refer to that "Men Vs. Women" gag panel, where men are represented by an "on/off" switch and women are this ridiculously complicated array of knobs, wheels, dials, meters, multi-position switches, etc. On the other hand, though... I would have no use for "UNDO".... never had it in daVinci-land... don't miss it. But I use it extensively in Final Cut. There you go. Use the active memories, grade bins, room setting bins... There are just TOO MANY shadings of meaning that go into a grade that can be accomodated with DO/UNDO... and besides... BE DELIBERATE!
    Happy to join the forum... Where possible I will answer queries with a "page number", and hope that it will be a better learning experience. But I accept that that will only apply to operations, and not colour grading itself. There is no manual for that, although there are books that discuss it. Easier to map human emotions on a quantitative basis. Even Goethe gave up on it.
    Joe

    I would
    have no use for "UNDO".... never had it in
    daVinci-land... don't miss it.
    I'll use basemem or original mem as my undo on the 2k+. It's a sledge hammer and not nearly as graceful as command-z but it will work.
    Regarding the writer of the manual, Alexis van Hurkman has published an excellent text on color enhancement/correction http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Pro-Training-Encyclopedia-Correction/dp/0321432312/r ef=pdbbs_sr1/104-2640225-5516717?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1182436900&sr=8-1
    I had the pleasure of meeting him at NAB and getting a personal demo of Color at one of the Apple pods.
    Nice post, Joe, nice post.

  • Accounts that have been suspended. Class action la...

    I believe that Skype's practices may spark a class action lawsuit. Today, my account was suspended for no known reason. No one at Skype could provide me with any reason whatsoever. They said it was their policy not to provide this information. But if I wanted to open a new account, no problem. Really? So what happens to my Skype credit? Oh, sorry sir, too bad. You will lose that.
    From what i have seen here on this forum and other blogs, this seems to be common practice by Skype. Suspend customers accounts for no known reason, then tell them too bad if they lose their credits. (Not to mention the dozens of calls I could not receive today.)
    Any other phone company would have called me to help solve this issue. Skype offers only scripted customer service and other non-solutions. In the meantime, i am out of business without my phone.
    If there are any class-action attorneys out their, please feel free to contact me. I'd be willing to be your first sign up. 

    Did you ever get any response from Skype.  I am experiencing the same problem and agree that a class action suit is needed.  Did you ever find a lawyer?  I would be happy to join.

    We are asked to use Wrapper Classes in in Java programs and not the primitive data types. I could not understand the reason.
    Pls tell me what is the advantage of using Wrapper Classes over the primitive data types ?
    means Integer instead of int, etc....

    Hi friends,
    I am happy to join Java/J2EE tech. My project is
    scaled over the network. MVC-II struts, EJB based
    architecture, we are using.
    We are asked to use Wrapper Classes in in Java
    programs and not the primitive data types. I could
    not understand the reason.
    Pls tell me what is the advantage of using Wrapper
    Classes over the primitive data types ?
    means Integer instead of int, etc....I am not sure why use Integer over int; but Wrapper classes are used to remove coupling between classes and create one hand doesn't know what the other hand does effect.
    for example:
    when you have a SFTP java package but doesn't do everything that your application needs to do in one step and you need to do sftp stuff at many places in your application, it would be wise not to use SFTP java package directly from all the classes that need to do sftp stuff. Because if you were to change the SFTP package later due to say some bug fix or newer version or ... you would have to go and modify all the classes that had sftp stuff to update.
    Instead you could write a custom sftp wrapper that handles all the sftp stuff for your application needs and that wrapper deals with the SFTP java package. So all the classes don't need to know which SFTP java package is being used only the custom-wrapper needs to know.

  • How to crop OLE objects?

    Hi there :-)
    I have a real big problem: it seems that StarOffice can not crop OLE objects! I can crop images that i inserted, but not other things like autocad drawings.
    Will this be fixed? It seems that this will not occur too soon since this feature was not present in older versions and got not implemented this time, possibly in Staroffice 9??
    greetings, happy new year!
    molnium

    Just to clarify Lixia's response.
    In Reports 9i we have deprecated our OLE functionality. Reports created in prior versions that contain OLE objects should still run, but you will not be able to create new reports containing OLE objects.

  • Palm handhelds are history, what about PalmOS?

    Greetings,
    I've joined this forum as a last resort to trying to get some questions answered. Can't seem to get a human being to answer a telephone at Palm (scary, since now Palm is only going to make phones ;^)  ). Anyway, I have a customer that has fielded thousands of devices in the oil & gas industry with an Ir window to download data to, you guessed it, Palm devices. I was contacted by them the other day with them wanting to know what 'platform' to now go to, and how to get their application to run on whatever that may be. They were told (since they resell palms to their customers) that handhelds were history. They say they were also told that PalmOS is history. They found that their application would run on the T-3, T-5, E-2, TX and LifeDrive. Not sure why it wouldn't run on others, and I don't have of list of what those that it wouldn't run on is. I guess if it runs a version of Palm OS that supports IrCOMM, then it ought to work.
    So, smartphones seem to be the remaining platform...  I see the Treo has an Ir port as well as the centro. The Treo runs WindowsMobile (and from what I can 'find out', only WindowsMobile), and the centro runs PalmOS, which as I stated before is supposedly also going away. I imagine the centro now has a limited lifetime to look forward to.
    I need to know how to answer my customers concerns. I need to know what smartphone(s) that Palm will make that will talk IrCOMM through an Ir port, and how to 'port' their old PalmOS code to run on whatever smartphone that might be, or, if there would be an emulator available to allow PalmOS apps to run on WindowsMobile, or, if PalmOS will be made available on any of the new smartphones.
    I don't have their source code yet, and don't know what development tools were used to write their code, but I beleive that CodeWarrier was mentioned somewhere along the way, if that helps.
    Thanks for help anyone can provide!

    Ok I want to start off on a high level and address some of your concerns.
    1. Handhelds (afaik) are not history
    2. Treo's are not only Windows Mobile, these also run on PalmOS
    3. PalmOS is a dying OS, but is not completely history
    4. PalmOS can run on Windows Mobile with a little help
    Ok so that was a quick high level answer to your questions. So now I will spend a little time and go into detail on each point.
    1. Handhelds (afaik) are not history
    You can go to the palm store and still purchase an E2 and a Palm TX. Here is a link to the E2 page to purchase it, and it is currently in stock
    http://store.palm.com/sm-palmone-and-153-tungsten-and-153-e2-handheld--pi-1971034.html
    Older handhelds T-5, T-3 those can't be purchased directly through Palm. Your sources are correct that they are somewhat history. You can still get support for these products, but purchasing is limited.
    2. Treo's are not only Windows Mobile, these also run on Palm OS
    There are two types of Treo's ones that run Palm OS and one's that run Windows Mobile. The Palm OS Treo's are typically easily distingushed by a "p" on their name (IE Treo 700p, Treo 755p) there are a few exceptions to this such as the Treo 680 which does run Palm OS. On that same token the windows mobile devices are using distingushed with a "w" on their name (IE Treo 700w, Treo 700wx) same as with the 680 there is some exceptions such as the Treo 750 which does run Windows Mobile.
    3. PalmOS is a dying OS, but is not completely history
    The PalmOS is an old operating system and Palm is currently working on a brand new OS, WebOS, this is the predecessor of palm os. With that being said when this OS launches Palm isn't just going to stop and no longer support devices still running Palm OS. Instead we have implemented a product lifecycle (you can find more informatin about it here)
    http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/NUA/launchKB.asp?c=11439&fn=treo&mn=800w&cn=sprint
    If the link doesn't work you can go to http://kb.palm.com and type in solution id 11439
    So all Centro users are still going to get support through Palm as long as the device still falls within a supported lifecycle stage.
    4. PalmOS can run on Windows Mobile with a little help
    There is a program called StyleTap that is available. What this program does is allows Palm OS programs to run on a Windows Mobile unit. The program itself is a little pricey, but for those that need this functionality is well worth it. On that same note StyleTap is also wanting to design a program that will run PalmOS apps on the new WebOS when it launches but none of that is final.
    Hopefully this addresses everything you mentioned. If not please feel free to post and we will assist you further with as much information as is available.
