My advice for Sony in this department:

1)  Put a 3.5mm headphone jack on all your music phones! Stop making me use the proprietary fastport or whatever to connect my headphones.

2)  Put out software to allow your phones to Sync with iTunes for both Windows and Mac. The third party software I used with my old w800 was flaky.

 

As if Apple allow them with no hesitation xD

There are devices out there that sync with iTunes without stepping on Apple's toes. They make an app that delves into the iTunes database files and grabs the playlists that the user specifies. The key here is that they design their own sync app with their own interface, rather than trying to hijack Apple's.

Instead of doing that, Palm just chose to program their devices to masquerade as iPods so they can take full advantage of iTunes software (possibly violating proper USB protocol in the process). That's why they have to fight Apple every time there's an iTunes patch.
