The new Palm mini phone reminded me of the still-born Palm Foleo from 2007. Was intended as a phone companion but going the other direction in terms of size: a mini laptop to go with a Palm Treo. Killed before coming to market... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_Foleo (cc @jsnell @mwichary )
I read Piloting Palm recently, and it was already fascinating – despite ending halfway through! I am starting to think Palm company/brand might be among the most fascinating in the industry. Almost unbelievably convoluted story.
