Palm Foleo coverage
![]() It may have a while to go until is satisfies many users. Those that want a convenient form factor and reasonable price might be interested for email and document viewing or editing. But it's not a laptop or tablet pc replacement, so don't plan on doing heavy computing on it. Will it sell? I guess we'll find out over time.

Still having fond memories of my palm V and therefore having a soft spot in my heart for the company, I have to say I'm not very impressed. I love the fast start up, but I can do all that with my -hardly bigger- 12" MSI laptop, or with a -smaller- organiser with a BT-keyboard, and I do not see why this add anything to the origami/UMPC concept.
BTW I hate integrated keyborads; first to go and often have a tactile feedback not to my taste, I prefer stand alone keyboards. It also seems to be aimed very much at Treo-owners, and I do not find Treo's particularly outstanding smartphones, prefering HTC-products instead. Just my 2 cts of course, and I sincerely hope I'm wrong and it will turn out to be a revolutionary product, but unless the specs and the promo are severely understated I fear this is not gonna be the renovation the Palmpilot and the Palm V gave us.
