Palm OS
Computer operating system designed for Palm Pilot palmtop computers. The Palm OS provides handwriting recognition on a touch-sensitive screen and was once the most widely used palmtop operating system; Pocket PC subsequently caught up with it.
Palmtop computers became popular due to their simplicity, expandability, mobility, and wearability (the ability to carry the device without the wearer being aware of its presence). The Palm OS competed with Pocket PC (previously called Windows CE) in the palmtop market and has been adapted to suit mobile communications devices where it competes with the Symbian operating system EPOC.
