SUNNYVALE, Calif.— June 7, 2004 — PalmSource, Inc. (NASDAQ: PSRC) provider of Palm OS™, a leading operating system powering next-generation mobile devices and smartphones, today announced details of its annual PalmSource Euro DevCon, scheduled for September 28-29, 2004 in Munich, Germany. This high-energy event will provide attendees with 'best practices' for making applications smartphone-ready and reveal revenue opportunities with new Palm Powered™ Mobile World wireless operator and infrastructure partners in Europe and other geographies. Be the first to see PalmSource's new smartphone OS and learn about, and use, the new Palm OS Developer Suite tools for Palm OS Cobalt at this jam-packed, two-day conference.

Kicking-off with a keynote by PalmSource president and CEO David Nagel, the conference builds momentum with detailed presentations by partners, licensees and industry-leading mobile operators.
