The over-the-air Palm webOS update is now available to those on the Sprint network in North America and other major networks throughout Europe. The 1.4 incarnation of the mobile OS offers a few additions and upgrades to webOS, but nothing earth shattering to say the least. Palm users will now be able to edit and share video, use the Calendar and other tools more efficiently and enjoy enhanced notifications. Not bad for a minor update. However, logical heads ask why some of these features were not included with the inaugural installment of the webOS. Sometimes, it appears that mobile manufacturers are content to release a lesser product in order to be able to release more quality updates in the future. This may be an illusion of sorts to current customers, but potential customers who dismissed the phone originally, will not convert because of a new update. Once they reject a phone, it is almost impossible to change their minds.
