    Some time ago, palm.com was redirecting to mynewpalm.com and at one point there was splash page with the old palm logo. Checking today, palm.com still redirects to mynewpalm.com but instead of a page not found, it now takes you to:

    image.thumb.png.3166c3dc03eca8a5fba17012936d009e.png

    Then to http://home.sqreem.com/login/?urlBefore=http://mynewpalm.com/

    palm.com

     

    Question is, what is SQREEM? http://home.sqreem.com/home/?tabpage=aboutsqreem

    Now that's in Google Chrome but in edge, mynewpalm.com comes up as:

    mynewpalm.com

    webOS OSE on HP Touchpad?

    in HP TouchPad

    Posted

    With the release of webOS OSE, I'm wondering if it's able to run on the HP Touchpad. I wonder if someone will attempt to port it over.  

    Might give me a reason to pull out the old Touchpad, currently have an older Android system on it and haven't messed with it in over a year.

    I want a new webOS Smart Phone

    in LG webOS Wish List

    Posted

    I think it's time that LG put webOS on a smart phone!  What does everyone think? webOS started on the Palm Pre and then HP bought Palm and came out with the Pre 2 and almost a Pre 3. There was also a Touchpad tablet and a full screen model phone that never came out because HP scrapped it all. They then sold off webOS to LG. So it seems natural that they come out with a webOS smart phone that integrated real well with their TVs, refrigerators, and whatever else webOS comes out on with maybe some backwards compatibility with Android apps would be my suggestion. Or maybe a webOS layer over Android? 

    Interesting read on wikipedia

    "webOS, also known as LG webOS or Open webOS, (previously known as HP webOS and Palm webOS)[2] is a Linux kernel-based multitasking operating system for smart devices such as smart TVs and it has been used as a mobile operating system. Initially developed by Palm, Inc. (which was acquired by Hewlett-Packard), HP made the platform open source, at which point it became Open webOS. The operating system was later sold to LG Electronics. In January 2014, Qualcomm announced that it had acquired technology patents from HP, which included all the webOS and Palm patents.

    Various versions of webOS have been featured on several devices since launching in 2009, including Pre, Pixi, and Veer smartphones, TouchPad tablet, LG's smart TVs since 2015, LG's smart refrigerators and smart projectors since 2017."

    LG Web OS 5.0 Smart TV? What happened to 4.0?

    in LG TV and LG webOS Smart TV Discussion

    Posted

    I'm not sure if this is real but saw this article published where they claim they have webos 5.0 on their LG TV.  See below.

    webos 5.3

     

    Note : You can’t directly go from WebOS 3.5 to WebOS 5.3 .

    My experience after using LG LH 604 T Full HD Version review after using it for 4 months.

    What did we checked before switching or buying this Television ?

    • The picture quality, price, Miracast to mirror my laptop screen and ability to stream 1080p  video without any problem.

    Is there a non FHD version ?

    • Yes and the price is lower and all the specs same as that of FHD version.

    Every thing in short after my 4 months of experience.

    Pros

    • Super sharp display (FHD, IPS Panel) and viewing angles
    • Cheaper than other bands
    • Dust won’t settle on your screen, but on other parts dust may settle if you are living a dusty region
    • WebOS frequently updated with patches
    • Eye comfort mode
    • Good sound quality
    • Supports almost all video and audio formats like MKV, AVI, DiviX, AAC etc
    • Inbuilt apps for Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video and some country specific apps
    • Support for Miracast or screen sharing or Inter WiDi. Note WiDi is used only in old laptops models
    • Screen can be turned off, when playing only music.
    • Remote with pointer mouse, so you can type songs or movie names quickly in YouTube, Netflix etc on the on screen keyboard. Also when you connect or mirror your laptop screen to this TV, remote pointer can be used as mouse and there is scroller on the remote. But only double click supported, no right nor left clicks
    • Subtitles in the video is supported
    • 2 Years LG warranty (Note this is country specific, so do ask your seller about this)
    • Very less power consumption, screen consumes 4% of power, speakers consumes (20 Watt) 3% of total power input

    Cons

    • TV lags
    • Sound mode can’t be changed quickly like picture mode
    • No support for wireless headphones
    • Web browser closes after we viewed around 15 1080p YouTube videos, it says out of memory and during restart of the browser the crashed web page is shown for us to continue playing videos
    • In built YouTube app settings has no option to set resolution of video to play only 1080p videos
    • Universal remote costs around $75 if you need to buy a new one, note : till now there are no probs with my universal which I clubbed with my set top box (CISCO one) and all functions are supported
    • During Miracast laptop mouse lags and still now I don’t know how to solve this issue.
    • Documents like docx,PDF can’t be opened from flash drive or hard drive, but from Miracast its possible.

    Does it support USB mode of android mobiles ?

    • My Sony Xperia USB mode supported but my lenovo USB mode not supported and this is weird!

    Final Thought

    For this price and with this much features loaded, we say its a good go one.

    If you need any info or clarify any doubts about this model, just drop a comment and I will answer that for you in a working day.

    Samsung Tizen - The Competition

    in The Lounge - Off Topic

    Posted

    So besides the major mobile OS systems out there like iOS and Android, what is the competition for webOS...On the TV front Samsung has it's Tizen OS which is a direct competitor to LG's webOS on TVs it looks like. It will be interesting to see where this all goes. LG has a leg up and is out to market first, but it's early...

    6-8 Weeks for Touchpad Letter

    in HP TouchPad

    Posted

    Here's an email I recieved from HP..

    Important information regarding your HP TouchPad order

    _____________________________________________________________________

    HP Small and Medium Business Customer,

    Thank you for your interest in webOS and the HP TouchPad -- the

    response to our price reduction has been overwhelming -- both in

    terms of volume and in the energy and enthusiasm it has generated in

    our customers.

    It has taken us longer than anticipated to work through the high

    volume of orders that were received. We apologize for any

    uncertainty this caused, but we are now in a position to understand

    our ability to fulfill your order.

    Your order will be fulfilled at the discounted price. However, we

    do not have enough stock to satisfy your order at this time. It will

    take 6-8 weeks to build enough HP TouchPads to meet our current

    commitments, during which time your order will then ship from this

    stock with free ground shipping. You will receive a shipping

    notification with tracking number once your order has shipped. We

    apologize that these timelines are longer than indicated on the

    website at time of purchase.

    At the significantly reduced price, the HP TouchPad does not

    qualify for our standard 30 day return policy and is not returnable.

    If this delay is not acceptable, please send an email to

    [email protected] with your instructions for cancellation within

    a week. Be sure to include your HP order number and the name and

    ship-to address on the order. Also please indicate clearly if this is

    the only order requiring cancellation or if you wish all orders in

    your name to be canceled. You will receive an automated cancel

    notification when your order cancellation request has been

    processed. Please be aware, however, that cancellations cannot be

    reversed, and our US SMB store has sold out of HP TouchPad and will

    not make any further available for sale.

    We are pleased that we will be able to fulfill your order and look

    forward to you joining the exciting community of webOS!

    Sincerely,

    Your HP Small and Medium Business Team

    Palm Touchstone Chargers

    in Palm Pre and Pre Plus

    Posted

    I have 4 palm touchstone charger docks, 2 in my house, one in the office, and one in my car. I bought my wife a plam pixi pink touchstone back cover. I have a palm pixi plus black cover for my touchstone. Works very well, and one of teh things I always liked. I set it down various times during the course of the day and when driving it sits on it in my car. The battery is always charged. I use the hell out of my phone for work, so the battery can drain pretty quickly. I also check email all teh time and have it hooked to 6 email accounts with instant push for emails on. All pop accounts and one exchange account. Plus browsing online, the touchstone charging docks have been a huge help in keeping my battery up daily.
