Understandably, when the news of HP&rsquo;s purchase broke, both the volume and price of Palm&rsquo;s stock skyrocketed, with Palm stock opening the day up nearly 24% from yesterday afternoon. Right now shares of Palm are trading around $5.74 (yes, higher than HP&#8217;s offer), with investors hedging that somebody else is going to come in and place a higher bid for Palm than HP&rsquo;s $1.2 billion package. We wouldn&rsquo;t count on it, and we&rsquo;re not sure we could take the excitement either.
