But isn't the market already moving toward? 1) Web applications and browsing?
2) Data connectivity through the smart phone? 3) Integration of data and applications with the smart phone? How does the Foleo significantly distinguish Palm from those producing UMPCs & the upcoming MIDs. Especially the MIDs which are designed to be very portable companions to your PC and phone, some with cellular connectivity and others relying on BT through the phone. Couple that with Google and others developing web-based office suites and I fail to see how the Foleo makes Palm a frontrunner in this race.
