Any comments on Palm OS VS Symbian OS? Which one is more user friendly, which is better, the pro and cons and how easy it is to move from one to another OS.

Hmm... I think that palm os is more user friendly. Symbian os is not so fast system and it is quite limited with softwares. However Symbian os is better for phones, because it is more decent, so you don't need reset it almost ever instead what palm os need. But symbian os has about 40-80 trojan virus and palm os has 1 i think, so palm os is winner on that. However i think that palm os is always better and it is going to be better and better (i mean palm os cobalt).

Palm os:
Good:
-Super wide software pack around internet
-Pretty fast system
Bad:
-Need soft resets quite much, however reason is usually bad coded software
-Mostly used in pda not in phones

Symbian os
Good:
-Good for business people, because it is decent and okay software pack
Bad:
-Slow when opening softwares, palm os software are always very fast but of course if file is about 3mb big like village sim then launch may take some seconds
-Very poor software avaibility around internet
