New Palms in October

According to Palm's CEO, Palm will be releasing three new Palm devices in October:

In a bid to expand its consumer base, Palm will begin selling a new $100 consumer model through a wider range of retail outlets, Bradley said in an interview with ZDNet UK. The company will also release two new high-end models--one based on the ARM architecture and Bluetooth connectivity and another using always-on wireless GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) capabilities--in October.

Geek.com has a picture of one of the upcoming devices (named Zire). Also released will be Palm OS 5 with bluetooth/GPRS capabilties.

Apple's own iSync software is due out later this month. It is not yet known if it will provide support for these new devices.
