I was doing development with PalmOS around 2003-2004 timeframe, and the SDK had tools I have yet to see in other platforms to date.

'Gremlins': Automated fuzz testing within the emulator. Still waiting to see this make an appearance in other SDKs

'Debug ROMS': I've seen some SDKs including debug ROMs, but the ones on the PalmOS were actually useful. The ROMs would actually tell you what functions needed to be invoked before the current one (PalmOS needed memory pointers to be locked before any writing/copying operations could be allowed)

Agree with you on the memory starvations. We were porting another application from Symbian, and we had to jump through many hoops because the default code segment was limited to 64k.
