Welcome to the Designed for Palm Products Compatibility Test Program. This 3rd party software and hardware compatibility testing program has been designed by
Intertek, Inc. in partnership with Palm® Inc., and approved by Palm
Intertek is an independent test company chosen to administer the Designed for Palm Products Compatibility Testing program. All program specifics, including process, test design and program design, have been approved and are enforced by Palm.
The purpose of the Test Guide is to provide developers with detailed information about the testing process and the specific tests that will be run when a product is submitted to the program.
Developers are required to perform the tests detailed in the Test Guide prior to submitting it to Intertek to avoid the need for re-tests at additional expense.
Designed for Palm Products Program compatibility testing ensures that products conform to the compatibility standards required by Palm, Inc.
Meeting the compatibility requirements ensures interoperability with Palm smartphone devices. Once your solution has passed Palm's third-party compatibility test, you will be granted access to the Designed for Palm Products logo, which you can use to demonstrate compatibility with Palm Products. You will have permission to use the logo on your product packaging, website, at events, and on printed sales and marketing collateral.
The Designed for Palm Products Program compatibility test is not a full product quality assurance guarantee. Intertek’s function is to ensure that your product meets a set of compatibility standards from Palm, and that your product’s stability is adequate throughout the compatibility tests.
Intertek is pleased to be the exclusive compatibility test lab for both hardware and software packages.
IMPORTANT: Meeting the requirements of the compatibility test does not represent any type of quality assurance seal from Intertek, Inc. Palm, Inc. has reserved the right to refuse participation by any Vendor in the use of any trademark, licensing or compatibility program regardless of the test results determined by Intertek.
We look forward to contributing to your product’s success and working with you as part of the Designed for Palm Products testing program.
