We don’t know how this one slipped past us, but somewhere in the past few weeks (on October 19th as far as we can tell), HP and Palm ‘s logos got together to form what you see to the left: the HP Palm logo. The new, hybrid logo is on both Palm’s website and Facebook page, so this should quell any fears that the world might lose Palm’s branding all together . We don’t know what you think of the new logo — personally, we were a little partial to our own mock up .
