Yet it wasn't really a smartphone companion as it was the earliest of the modern smartbook. It had wi-fi and local storage and local apps.

I'd buy one today if it had support and I could get replacement batteries and such.]]>Jun 30th 2010 9:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Apple is selling iPad quite well, Toshiba, Lenovo, and many others now building so-called "smartbook"s... It WAS the future, I was even planning to have one, and people(including engadget) couldn't see it. So unfortunate for foleo, now the Palm's merged into HP, I hope HP-Palm-branded foleo will someday resurrect with its all the goodness it had back in 2007.]]>Jun 30th 2010 9:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 9:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 10:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/
I don't understand why Palm at one point stopped producing things in large enough quantities...their products became downright exotic in most countries in the world. They wanted to introduce a new computing paradigm, which is fine if you're a gigantic company like Apple or Google, but if not, your product NEEDS to run Windows. Wanna bet that if ASUS came up with a non-x86 eeePC it would have met with equal derision?

Same goes for pre+webOS...if HTC is capable enough to get their products pretty much everywhere, why couldn't Palm do the same? It was downright ridiculous to come up with a new platform and expect to make money by selling it in...3-4 countries???? Of course there was no developer interest, why would anyone want to make apps only for Sprint subscribers and a couple of other carriers in Europe? I live in the EU and use Vodafone, where were my Pre offers?

I used to love these guys, but they SOOO deserved to fail. ]]>Jun 30th 2010 9:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/
They didn't have as much money as HTC; they were probably the poorest company in the smartphone game. When you're tight with money like that, you don't have the luxury of depending on worldwide launches to bring revenue.]]>Jul 1st 2010 11:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 9:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 9:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 10:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 12:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/Jun 30th 2010 6:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/30/palm-foleo-lands-on-ebay-can-be-yours-for-a-relative-song/

* It booted instantly... very cool for something that seemed like a notebook.

* In all other ways, THE FOLEO WAS SLOW AS SHIT.

This thing was unusable. And expensive. ($600... WTF?).
