Then Jeff Carlson turns his attention to the recent announcement that Palm will be producing a Treo that uses Windows Mobile rather than the Palm OS. In the news, EMC Dantz has released Retrospect 6.1 to provide full Tiger compatibility, and Apple responds to complaints about scratched iPod nano screens.
