We’re not sure when the update will land on Verizon, but I assume that it’s going to be soon. Palm users have speculated that Verizon’s [...]

Today, Palm released update 1.3.1 for WebOS, and also the new (official) Facebook app, what is, well, not too good.  FriendsFlow, which has been in the App Catalog for a while does more features, but you have to pay for it.  I, personally, use PalmBook, which is a free homebrew app (you can find a [...]
