Agreed. I think Palm has really lost it. If this thing were $100 I could see it possibly having a market but if you're carrying around something as big as the Foleo just carry a laptop. So the Foleo uses the Treo as its processor and 'net access but PDAnet will give you the same connectivity on a laptop with an order of magnitude more functionality, for the same price. I just don't see what you get for over $400 except a savings of a little weight, especially as underpowered as the Treos are. I know Palm wants to encourage the market to move as much as possible to smartphones, but this isn't the way to do it. A better use of resources would have been sw with a palm-like interface and an optional bluetooth dongle for those laptops that don't already have it. But to build more hardware? Foolish.
