Today, Palm announced it was canceling the Foleo,
which has been labeled as a "mobile companion" that would be used in
conjunction with a smartphone. While it was an interesting concept, you
were better off picking up a cheap laptop for the price it was going to
be offered at.
On the official Palm Blog, CEO Ed Colligan stated the following:
"In the course of the past several months, it has become clear that the right path for Palm
is to offer a single, consistent user experience around this new
platform design and a single focus for our platform development
efforts."
Even though this cancellation, which could cost Palm up to $10
million won’t disappoint too many people, it will be interesting to
watch what becomes of their "next generation platform".
