With early news that Palm is working on their new 5-inch hybrid smartphone-tablet codenamed “Mansion” this bit of news can be the new piece to the puzzle of what Palm under the ownership of HP is going to do in the future. Here’s a bit of news of their new webOS Framework, “Enyo.”
Presented at Palm’s Developer Day, the news about new phones and tablets coming by next year of 2011 will also be flavored with a new webOS version. The new “Enyo” framework is a Javascript app framework with native hardware acceleration with 1 second app load times.
The interest here is that the framework will allow apps in a native scale having the ability to scale into multiple aspect ratios. Think of the native iPhone apps being ported to the iPad without the need or recoding everything to fit a larger screen. There will be a smoother transition between a smaller screen into a larger screen like smartphones going to tablets,
Here’s a video of the whole program.
The 15:55 mark is the one where a native scale had the ability to “move up” to a bigger screen scale. Pretty nifty huh.
This is slated to be released by early 2011 (January to April most probably) via developer SDK.
