There's no point in throwing money away, buying a product for which you don't see the value.

I have a different reference point, having owned a Psion Series 7 a few years back. I've desperately wanted to have another subnotebook based on a solid state memory model, with instant-on and instant application launching. I've said as much in another thread, but a device with the responsiveness of a PDA with the ergonomics of a laptop is something you have to experience to see the value of. Right now, people are just comparing the Foleo's specs to other devices in the mobile computing space, but I think once people actually start using something like this (assuming the UI is well implemented), we may be in for quite a surprise.
