Somewhere I saw the Foleo referred to as the "Fooleo", a little sad and a little cruel, but it will probably stick. I too, fail to see the usefulness of it for the majority of us. However, I am still a fan of the monochrome Palm. It does almost everything I need it to do. I would buy a TX if it could do VoIP. Maybe when you have a product line that already does enough things well enough, there is little incentive to change, to introduce innovations, to branch out. I still buy new devices for other purposes (e,g, Sony Reader) but for what I carry in my pocket, my M125 and my TRGpro are good enough. I almost bought a Nokia N800 this spring because of the promise that it would run Skype. Something that size with PDA features would be very useful to me. I use WiFi at home, so it would become my long-distance phone. But that money went to Sony for the Reader. I guess the point of this rambling rant is that I buy something when I see it can do something I really need. If my Palm breaks I will replace it with another Palm -- a small market for them.
