PalmSource Sells Off WeSync
PalmSource has sold the remainder of the WeSync software and technology to a company called Tanner Research.
WeSync is a internet based group information-sharing service and software for Palm Powered handhelds. Palm Inc acquired the service in December of 2000. Palm Inc later used the engenieers and technology from their WeSync and Anyday.com acquisitions to build the former MyPalm wireless web portal.
According to GearBits, WeSync was supported (barely) for about two years. Then, support and new memberships were discontinued on October 18, 2002. Since then, the WeSync system has been on life support, allowing existing users to sync their calendar and contact data, but not permitting new users and not providing any user support.
PalmSource announced the sale to the current remaining WeSync users. Tanner Research does not currently have any Palm OS products, but plans to continue the service and will shortly announce plans about the future of the service.

RE: Good News
There needs to be a way in the Palm to sync more than one schedule into your Palm.
I wish I could sync my co-workers calendar. My family's calendar. Etc.
This needs to be built into the defauly conduit.
Hopefully this will eventually get folded into the OS, but I ain't holding my breath.
