I'm sure many people would love a small and truly portable laptop. UMPC or small-screen laptops are normally quite expensive and at least twice the price of the Foleo. I guess we are going to have to wait and learn more about the actual operating system and hardware specs.
I personally think this will be more of a success if it's viewed as more than a Treo accessory, especially in Europe where Treos are not as popular or mainsteam as in the USA. A slick mini-laptop that hooks up via any phone/smartphone (not just Treos) could do well among both the geeks, business types, students and even normal home-users.

light? 2.4lbs (or about 1.2 kg) is not light. The only advantage over a lets say P1510 is the instant on (and the price, if they really aim for the quoted 600 US$).
