According to the February 25, 2009 announcement from Black Duck Software in their recent report on mobile projects in 2008, the Palm OS platform remains the king of the heap with more than four times (4X) the number of total projects than the second place platform, the iPhone OS.
While Apple’s [AAPL] iPhone OS development projects are clearly leading the new, emerging projects, the total available software projects is still dominated by the venerable Palm OS (not to be confused with Windows Mobile software that may run on Palm WinMobile smartphones). Also, keep in mind that the latest incarnation of Palm OS, Garnet, may not always be fully compatible with much older software that was originally developed for the original Palm Pilot devices.
