For those who have suggested (and there have been many) that we
purchase the intellectual right to the name Be, BeOS, etc. and acquire
the domain name, then here is a slap of reality on the face:

This is only for the 'be.com' domain. The price range is $230,000 -
$290,000. Now who wants to talk about what Palm would like for the
BeOS trademark? Shall we start talking about $ values into the
millions?
Hopefully this will wake up those dreamers who keep hoping that
somehow, miraculously, we will keep the "Be" thing alive. We will keep
the OS alive, but you can forget about the name. Please move on. It's
why we're changing the name.
