The Register seems to think that the Palm Foleo might resurface, only this time, it could include integrated WiMAX connectivity. Their guess stems from a beta invite that Palm recently sent out to test an "innovative new product". Palm Infocenter has the full wording of the invite but these qualifications do support the Reg's thoughts; the first three are required while the last four are optional:
Sprint Subscriber
Bluetooth headphones or car kits
WiFi Router access
Existing Smartphone Users
Heavy to Medium e-mail users
Heavy phone users
Travel for work with their phone
My first thought was that the device is the rumored Palm 800w along with support for the Sprint Airave femtocell device for seamless cell to VoIP calls. Now, I'm not so sure because the optional qualifications point towards a device that offers heavy e-mail support.
If this is the Foleo II, there's hope for the device given all the inexpensive, sub-notebooks that are popping up. My advice to Palm if it is: keep the price under $400 for a portable computing device; under $300 if it's just a companion device like the original Foleo was meant to be. Thanks for the tip, Dave !
