I think he had a prototype at one point... he wrote several articles about it. A few members here had one too (for being in the Palm Beta Community); they had to return them when the device was canceled.

I returned mine to stay above board with Palm, even though I suspected that anyone in a position to account for it would probably have been laid off by the time any legal action might have been taken. In retrospect, I regret sending it back. The CPU, OS and software selection were pretty slight, but the keyboard hasn't been matched by any netbook to date -- and I've had the highly touted HP Mini 1000. I'd say that all netbooks have pretty junky build quality next to the Foleo.

A couple of months ago I had a conversation with a friend who also got the Foleo the same day I need. When I asked him if he sent his back, he said no. He still has his.
