For the second time, the mysterious device codenamed Roadrunner and webOS 2.0 popped up in a Metrix developer log. And this time it comes with “HD” suffix. Looking at the log data, the HD is probably something related to the 640×960 screen resolution or could be the name of the device it self. Would it be the Palm Pre 2 or completely new device Palm Roadrunner? Sounds weird isn’t it?
The Roadrunner device spotted for the first time last week on the same Metrix logs. It was a webOS developer who created an app with Foursquare reported this info. And this time, the Roadrunner comes again tweeted by KillinItLLC, the developer of popular game Cloud Hopper.
Check out the chart of the Metrix developer logs below:
The following info could make this Roadrunner thing become more real:
- Phone Arena recently published an “unofficial” Verizon upcoming phones which included Palm Pre 2 for October release
Our source indicates that we might see the Palm Pre 2 doing its thing at this time, however, every bit of info regarding this possible successor seems to be held pretty tightly right now.
- Jon Rubinstein with an interview with Fortune magazine recently affirmed that webOS 2.0 will be available for download later this year.
- Another hint by Jon Rubinstein said that Palm is also developing hardware in an aggressive manner.
As October is coming soon, it’s really interesting to see what Palm will bring for the first time after the HP acquisition.
