Handspring

Handspring was a maker of Personal Digital Assistants using the Palm OS operating system. The original inventors of the Palm Pilot and founders of Palm Computing were Jeff Hawkins, Donna Dubinsky, and Ed Colligan. Palm Computing later became a division of US Robotics, which was then bought by 3Com. When the founders became unhappy at the direction in which 3Com was taking the company, they left and founded Handspring in June 1998. In 2003, Handspring merged with Palm, Inc.'s hardware division to form palmOne. The Treo 600 was the last product to use the Handspring name.
