Palm CEO Ed Colligan has posted a letter to Palm Customers, Partners and Developers on the official Palm blog. In the post, he states Palm will cancel the Foleo mobile companion product in its current configuration, and will undertake efforts to focus entirely on Palm's next-generation (Linux-based too) smartphone platform. My Take: A right move for Palm, the market is not ready for this sort of device.

And yet, when people such as yourselves make statements such this: "...the marked for PDA's is dead. smart phone have taken it and rightfully so....", no one has *ever* correctly argued the following question: If smart phones have "killed" the PDA, what do you do with your $200 Treo when you switch carriers with an incompatible service (Ex. GSM vs. CDMA vs. whatever)? You end up with.....a PDA =]
