webOS stylus driven tablet on the way? Palm was already working on it.

Gizmodo is running with an article about a future webOS tablet which will be stylus driven. It may be called PalmPad and it may be not, but I suspect the Palm name will be included because I am pretty certain that Palm was working on this at the start of the year. I was told (by someone who had seen such a device) that it was working on a much bigger phone than normal and that it was purely stylus driven. Earlier comments about this are here and here. If this is true it is actually bad news and a missed opportunity now that the iPad has arrived. Let’s just hope that it will be able to utilise the stylus in the way many of have been hoping for.
