I like "Flopeo" and "Powerbook 1400". And "Laptop". You can't beat these.

You cant beak “Brick” or ”Laptop” but Fooleo gets right to the point. It’s a N800 with a keyboard. But, the N800 would be a more appropriate size. How is this better than the OLPC? At three times the price…
nicholas @ May 31st 2007 12:07PM
Cowkitty,
Why would Google need them? You could start from scratch and have a better product. You could work with Apple on the iPhone and have better market share. You could be the glue, and leave the product to the CE companies.
KazO @ May 31st 2007 12:08PM
Yeah, 'Foolio' was the first thing that came to mind when I found out what it was.
Having gone all the way from a Pilot1000 to a Treo today, I was thoroughly disappointed with this announcement.

Interesting.. Gates has his right leg crossed over his left and Jobs has his left leg crossed over his right. If interpreted, shows that Gates is more left brain dominant (logical) and Jobs is more right brain dominant (creative).

I'm surprised that nobody went for the worst:
Mark Foley-o.

You think these guys would dress nicer, considering the kind of money they make.
Bill looks like a high school teacher...and Steve looks like well, a high school teacher on the weekends.
Dress up for gods sake!
murray @ May 31st 2007 1:23PM
Foldeo.
(Wait for it)
murray @ May 31st 2007 1:25PM
ooh ooh I got another one!
'Joke'

Steve just wants to slap the shit out of bill. His face is red in the shot. He's red with anger!!
Bill just wants to suck the genious out of Steve.
peter @ May 31st 2007 2:19PM
you would think that Jobs could have at least tied his shoes.

No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

Palm Failure.
Definitive and none too early. What a joke of a company! They squandered all the advantage they had on M$ and were incapable of any real innovation in years. They deserve to go tits up...

Palm NotiPhone.
And therefore entirely without merit.
