I thought that Palm was founded by a bunch of former Apple employees and coders who left and they all hated Apple passionately. This usually came up whenever there were discussions about why the early Palm devices had such crappy Mac connectivity.
So Palm does not sound like a good fit for Apple. I suspect Apple has more expertise in PDAs than Palm has, but Apple is just sitting on it, waiting for the time it makes sense to release a product. Remember Jobs said that there's no money in PDAs when companies like Palm are in a rush to cut prices down to nothing.
