It’s Palm own fault that the sales are low in Europe. If you don’t deliver to some countries, like the Netherlands where people want to buy one but can’t, you can’t expect that sales numbers are high.

1. There are potential Palm buyers who have already a contract with another operator which don’t expire soon.
2. There are potential Palm buyers who don’t want to switch operator.
