I'm sure Nokia could better use the money they would need to blow on Palm by investing it in better products with better marketing - why waste that money on a company with yet another platform (one requiring massive investment) and also with a diminishing market (it's getting hammered by Symbian and WinCE on a global level, Palm is such a niche player and only in North America - not really where a global company such as Nokia should be headed).

Think how good Maemo could become if Nokia were to invest several hundred million dollars in the platform rather than invest (is that even the right word?!) in Palm... At the end of the day, I just can't see why Nokia would be interested in Palm as the company is well past it's sell by date. Symbian, Linux and WinCE are the future on mobile devices - not Palm OS.
