Remember Palm? They made a series of PDAs and smartphones before the world fell in love with the iPhone. Well the brand at least might be returning.
According to webOS Nation, the Palm brand has been purchased by Alcatel Onetouch, a brand of Chinese tech company TCL. If you head over to Palm.com, in addition to the Palm logo, the words ‘Coming Soon’ appear.
