It won't be the same Palm devices as they will run Android. But it does bring back a little nostalgia all the same.

Palm branded smartphone could launch on Verizon this year

Lol the phone industry is going through what the car industry went through back in the early 2000s, resurrecting old brands and old sub-brands. E.g. when BMW brought back MINI and Rolls-Royce, VW brought back Bugatti as well as the Beetle etc etc...

Nothing better than nostalgia.

I just hope TCL do it properly. Nothing worse than bringing back something and ruining it or making it a more expensive version of an existing product *cough*VW*cough*New Beetle*cough*just another Golf*cough*

Woop-de-do Basil! Since large touchscreens took over, older brands like Blackberry and Palm don't have much to offer that sets them apart. Sad, but Apple and Samsung will likely continue to lead the pack for the next several years.
