I wrote a post about it <a href="http://www.owenkelly.net/2007/05/30/palms-third-business-revealed/" rel="nofollow">here</a> and my opinion holds. Either this is really what it is being advertised as (in effect a foldaway keyboard with attached screen) or Jeff Hawkins has a vision of the future that he hasn't articulated yet in which a small solid-state Linux sublaptop rules the world. If it is the former, then I suspect it will be dead by Christmas. If it is the latter then I am still waiting with interest for the real story :) Well I wasn’t totally wrong – although I am confused about what the Foleo is supposed to be for.

That's my guess. Do I win one if I'm right :) Imagine a Marvel comic sized ultra mobile pc, with traditional Palm pda instant-on, wildly souped up versions of the palm pda apps, full web browsing, and full compatibility with everything you have ever seen including your shoes.
