Yes, the ASUS looks quite interesting, and followons should be more so.

I've been following the Palm Foleo with bemusement, as it isn't clear who Palm thinks will buy one.

If you already have a laptop, you don't need the Foleo, and I think most of the folks who could use something like the Foleo already have laptops. If the Foleo could replace a laptop, it migh be interesting, but that seems unlikely, and you certainly aren't likely to carry as laptop and the Foleo. I think I agree with the commentator who expected Foleo sales to be "in the high four figures".

If the EEE gets decent third party software support, it might be quite nice indeed.
