Okay, Engadget. Lets have it out, right here and now. You’re irritating me with all of this chatter about the Palm Foleo. I’m really peeved that Palm made one of the worst decisions of its life by canceling one of the greatest new form factors to emerge in a long time. If the UMPC were an actual market, the Foleo would be a UMPC killer. So, if you, too, want to feel bad about Palm’s ill-fated choice to dump the Foleo and truly understand why it was such a mistake, then read this.
PS: If you get the impression that I’m emotional about this, you’re right. This was slated to be the one cross-over device which would have really spanned the gap which laptops simply cannot fill unless they weight too much and phones just don’t grasp. I’m very fond of my MacBook Pro and the Nokia N95 8GB which I’m testing right now is a fantastic phone, but either one is too much or the other isn’t enough. Aiiiyyyeeeeeeee! Foleo, you will be missed!!
