What an excellent decision! Ed Colligan made a tough decision. 10M is a lot of money to write off. But it was without a doubt the right decision. I'm sure we...
Yes and no. Yes because nothing came out of it when everybody was waiting for it. No since it will certainly have provided Palm a lot of experience and ...
What's shocking (beyond the whole, you know, 86'ing a major product!) is that they had two platforms to begin with. I'd sorta assumed that the Foleo's OS was...
Wrong. It had to have been a huge distraction to the new Linux smartphone development. The potential customers spoke out on the shortcomings of the Foleo... ...
Right, but you have to cut your losses when you know you're sinking too much with more sinking to come. Focusing on Linux smartphone instead will pay off big...
But they would have spent more money fixing a broken product now versus focusing on completing their Linux smartphone than goong back to fix the Foleo. This...

I used an iPhone for the first time today and I must say that thumb typing or one handed operation is out of it. You have to retrain yourself to type with...
what about a nokia 770 or 800 internet tableet with a bluetooth keyboard? they both have a full browser (oprea), a glorious hires screen, and run a debian...
it's not a phone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_770), although it can do VOIP via the Gizmo project. as for syncing, not really, although you can get it...
... yes - but neither is the Foleo ... I think all we need is a bigger TX - that runs Linux :). ... agreed - I don't know why Apple went away from that with...
Hawkins is pleased the PC giants have validated the market, but he sees much room for improvement among their early so-called "netbooks." Hawkins spoke to IBD...
