| The success of the 2.5-pound device — which turns on and off instantly, touts
| an easy-to-use interface and promises five hours of battery life — could
| depend on how programmers react to it this week at the LinuxWorld conference

Palm Foleo with Linux threatens the Laptop
,----[ Quote ]
| The Palm Foleo is joining a list of MID (Mobile Internet Devices) like the
| Nokia N800 and Asus Eee that use a lightweight version of Linux but the main
| advantage of the Foleo is its instant on feature. While traditional “Linux”
| may be too difficult for the average user to handle, these highly integrated
| implementations of Linux have no problem being adopted by the masses. That
| could pose a problem for Microsoft in the long run if these devices ever get
| widespread adoption.

Palm Foleo First Thoughts

| If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video should be worth a

| overview of the Foleo, which will hopefully give you a better idea of
| what it will be like to use the first mobile companion yourself.

Live from LinuxWorld: the Palm Foleo
,----[ Quote ]
| Currently, developers can build apps for the device by signing up with the
| Palm Developer Network; one of the guys at the stand told me that a free SDK
| should be available later on. Unfortunately, the Palm folks haven’t built an
| X server for the machine yet, so porting graphical programs could be out the
| question. That said, with only 128MB RAM, you wouldn’t want to be running
| OpenOffice.org on this thing anyway...
