Palm Folio Wireless Email – Dumb

This thing makes absolutely NO sense.

The Palm Treo with Good[TM] is still the best Mobile email device out there.

But there’s a reason I use that for mobile communications and not a small laptop. Because I don’t want to carry a small laptop with me. If I did there are tons of great UPC’s and lightweight laptops that are far better suited than this thing.

About the only thing positive about this is the price, $499 isn’t too shabby.

But if Palm has proven anything in the past it’s this:

1) They can’t build a browser to save their life, so I would expect the web experience on this to suck too.

2) We’re still waiting for a 700p bluetooth fix and it’s been out a year now.

3) If it’s Palm it’s disposable.

~~The Foleo~~, er Dumbeo.

The Poohbah is on sabbatical from blogging.

Check this space a month or two from now, if it’s still here then, there should be new content, if it’s gone, then, well, it’s gone.

I’m not entirely sure what this key or string of alpha numeric characters does, but it’s causing quite a stir on Dig and other places.

Has something to do with HD DVD content or something
