The problem… OK one of the problems with the Foleo was that you needed a very specific device for it to talk to.

This looks more universal. Upgrade your PDA no problem keep the redfly.

However it’s too close to the laptop price point for consumers, and I suspect business users would go for ultra portables/umpc’s instead

So, for the same price (I think), the Fooleo could do more standalone than this thing can?

Seriously I don’t get how people who bashed the Fooleo as being the silly waste of money that it was now think that this is the best thing since sliced bread.

This is a true companion for a smart phone.
The Foleo was more akin to an Asus Eee (with crappier specs) optimized for Palm synchronization.

It’s the Foleo for WM!

Based on the terrible reaction Palm got for the Foleo, it’ll be interesting to see if this is anything more than a niche product.
