webOS 2.0 coming soon to Pre, Pixi, and Pre Plus

With HP Developer Days in full swing, we're hoping there's plenty of good webOS-related news to report on in the coming days. One huge announcement has already been made, and it's great news for owners of the Pre, Pixi, and Pre Plus: webOS 2.0 will soon be available for your devices.
That's good news for developers as well. webOS 2.0 is a very different beast from its predecessor, so making the update available to all HP Palm devices will help prevent the kind of fragmentation which Android developers have to deal with.
HP didn't give a specific date for the release -- "in the coming months" is all we've got to go on for now.

Very good news! Hopefully couple months means January 2011.

Haha. As if.
Palm also said in 2009 that Adobe Flash would be coming in February 2010. What a crock.

Right, but I believe Adobe had promised everyone mobile Flash would be all over the place last year...and how did that go?
I don't think you can squarely lay the blame on Palm for that one.

I love you DLS for my webOS news fix.
And I love my damn Pixi, believe it or not. Tethered at a pretty solid 2Mbps as we speak.
Anyway cool news, hope it really happens.

How'd you tether your phone? HomeBrew?

With all the random crap in the catalog alot of which isn't very good. Can we at least get some enjoyable applications. I know the Iphone has applications for each brand and store, showing promotions and neat videos. I'm pretty sure they have a Ralph Lauren Application and while most would think their just clothing if you add them to Facebook they do neat technology stunts as well as runway shoots, etc.. Blackberry has ESPN apps and major fantasy sports applications, and bunch of things of this nature. There are a ton of developers just missing out on a ton of the market. How many versions of GPS and altimeters are we going to get?
