There is a possibility that Palm will resuscitate the Foleo, its “mobile companion”. The Register suggests that Palm could unveil the formerly discontinued device with WiMAX radio to make it compatible with Sprint’s XOHM network.

Palm have apparently recently invited beta testers who are existing smartphone users to try out an “innovative new product”. If Palm can set the price point properly and make use of a decent CPU, like the Intel Atom – then they could have a winner in our books. They ought to market the device as a sub-notebook like the Asus eeePC, instead of as a “mobile companion” in order to convince the public that there is more to the device than just email checking facilities.
