WorldWide Tech & Science. Francisco De Jesús.
You heard it right. After browsing a little on the palm developer blog I found that the Veer is webOS 3.0 upgradable.
In simple words the Veer will be capable to work just like the Pre3 :
1.- The new version will bring a number of new features to webOS, including shared notifications and built-in HP printing support.
The shared notifications work with a paired webOS device and will allow your calls and text messages to be forwarded to the tablet over Bluetooth. The TouchPad will even be able to handle video calls from a paired Veer and Pre 3.
That pairing is established using the Touchstone-tech Touch-to-Share communication coils, but all data transferring happens over Bluetooth. So while you can leave your phone on the Touchstone charger while you play with your tablet, you still need to be in the general vicinity (plus or minus thirty feet). In essence, the TouchPad becomes a Bluetooth headset for the phone.
2.- Printing support will only be with HP ePrint printers. A webOS dedicated application is scheduled for July. Now you can HP e-print sending an e-mail to your printer.
3.-The TTS(Touch to Share) feature to share with the TouchPad will be also available for the Veer.
How all this will happen?
A webOS OTA (over the air) update is promised to come. No dates until now, but I assume it will happen after the TouchPad (June) http://worldwidegadget.blogspot.com/2011/05/hp-ceo-leo-apotheker-hp-webos-touchpad.html and Pre3 launch this summer.
The Veer will launch in May 15th with AT&T and with webOS 2.1.2. in.
