The Asus Eeepc is the thing, not the Folio. I wonder when the Eeepc is going to be available here.

Even the gadget website Engadget wrote a letter to Palm to do something about the products that were coming out. Their Treos look like they’re still in the stone age after years of not getting a facelift in UI. The Folio is nothing new. It’s just like the UMPCs being touted by Intel and Microsoft.

it’s sad, but some people seem to think that instead of carrying this around, they’ll just get a laptop. this isn’t a bad idea, though. i had hoped other hardware manufacturers would come up with the same thing for pocket pc’s that aren’t from palm. :)
