Things have been shaken up at Palm, makers of the recently released iPhone-opponent “Palm Pre”, with the promotion of Jon Rubinstein to CEO. The importance of the Pre to Palm is underscored by the move: Jon most recently supervised the Pre launch and from tomorrow he’ll be in charge of the entire company. So at least he gets to start with a weekend.
The interesting aspect for iPhoners is how Mr Rubinstein used to head up Apple’s iPod and Mac divisions. It seems Apples “Us vs Them” vibe, massively played up in the PC vs Mac commercials, no longer applies to one of their strongest rivals.
