  August Palm
August Teodor Palm (February 5, 1849 - March 14, 1922) was the son of a school teacher near Malmo in southern Sweden and a key person in introducing the social democratic labour movement in Sweden and forming it in a pragmatic and non-revolutionary direction.
Instead, August Palm moved to Stockholm and on September 25, 1885 started the newspaper Social-Demokraten (the social democrat), acting as its editor for its first year.
In 1900, August Palm was invited to visit America by the Scandinavian club of the Socialist Labour Party (S. P.) in Providence, Rhode Island, in cooperation with similar clubs in New York and Brooklyn, as a means to attract more members to these clubs.

Palm and Handspring have been forced to reduce the price tag of the m500 and Edge amid slow demand for pricey monochrome models.

 1881 Speech by August Palm   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
At Palm’s second visit to Stockholm in the summer of 1882, his liberal opponents at the meetings demanded, supported by the papers, that he should state the social democratic program, to get a proper foundation for discussion.
What Palm here is trying to bring forward as an alternative mean for solving the social question is Lassalle’s famous “production organisation with state credit” In later talks, Palm has to full agreement with Lassalle expressed that the production organisations are only to be considered as a temporary form for the final goal.
Among the time for Palm’s first speech as socialistic agitator it was an axiom for all good bourgeoisie gentlemen that socialism wanted to share women, dissolve the families and free love.

 The Execution of Johann Philipp Palm
 The assistant wrote to Palm, who was in hiding, on 7 August that "We can always say we received them from someone else, and that the name of the sender was not on the package."  In fact, Palm, in his defense, claimed that he received three bundles of books, completely wrapped in paper.
Palm was taken first to Ansbach, where he conferred with an attorney and was informed he would be taken to Braunau for trial.
There was no attorney attending Palm at his trial, however it is unclear whether, in Allen Cronenberg's view, if this was due to Palm's attorney failing to appear in time.

 Palm Distribution Tax Information
Upon the distribution of the Palm stock, the tax basis of your 3Com stock would be reduced to $630.60 (21.02% of $3,000.00), or approximately $6.31 per share.
If you sold all 222 shares of Palm on August 27, 2000, you would receive long-term gain or loss on the first block of 148 shares (since you add the 31 days you held the Palm stock to the time you had previous-ly held the 100 share block of 3Com).
But your gain or loss on the other 74 shares of Palm would be short-term, because your holding period was less than one year when the period you held the block of 50 shares of 3Com is included.

With payments from selling the Palm brand worth almost $9 million a year, PalmSource has effectively increased their revenue 12.5% - not bad for a company that (from my understanding) is struggling for resources.
