emulator and business applications

I am particularly concerned that webOS is not yet ready for prime time hours, and the emulator is very expensive.  To use medical programs (such as the freely available version of Epocrates) or a fully functional Docs-to-Go, a nees to buy emulator for $ 30.  If you have already purchased docs-to-go, then it is an extra $30.  There is a surcharge of $ 30 for each Palm Pre for epocrates if there is more than a meadow in the family (and more than one person who can use this program).  Why Palm did not provide an emulator as part of the package if they were releasing a beta operating system.  I have argued that an operating system without a clock works and then one that is still not completely functional after 3 updates is no more than a beta model.  Why not the emulator so customers requiring a fully functioning phone can use it?  I can only think it is a kick back in this somewhere.  The window of 7 days to compensate for those mind buying the emulator and its lack of functioning reaffirms this claim.  Required materials to the developers for 3rd party applications fit.  Palm should do the right thing and provide an emulator or a refund to those who have been duped into buying from until webOS can provide business applications.

I wouldn't say that anyone was fooled. Palm has ever done once and still makes no mention of the possibility of using the os on the pre palm software. They do not even mention the fact that a third party offers an emulator that I can find. All that they mention is that it will launch applications running on its new WebOS. In fact they even say more precisely

"The applications that you have installed on your old Palm OS® by ACCESS or Windows ."

Mobile smartphone do not work on your phone before, because it uses the

new Palm ® webOS™ platform. Check the App Catalog for a new version of

your old favorites. »

The pre shouldn't be a simple report above the old operating system. Never once was announced as such. Anyone who bought thinking they would be able to run it old apps on it did not read anything. These people should be happy that a 3rd party app to allow for these. All this has nothing to do with the Palm. Once again, not to be harsh but I keep seeing complaints about people being upset that the phone is not something Palm went out of there way to explain that they have simply not supported.
