Foleo in the wild?

August 30th, 2007

Foleo wild

Lots of people seem to be getting their hands on the Foleo at various Palm events these days, but Engadget reader Michelle sent in a couple of pics of the Foleo in use at an oil-change station in Redwood City, California. Anyone recognize that guy? Palm rep? Linux developer? Or just a regular Joe the Journalist testing out his review unit, meaning it won't be long until our own Foleos arrive? He's using what looks like a Treo, so he's at least trying the whole smartphone companion thing.

UPDATE: Maps are our friend. Turns out Redwood City, California isn't too far down the road from Sunnyvale, home of many a Silicon Valley giant, including, yes, Palm, Inc. It's likely the gentlemen getting his car's oil changed works for Palm.

    If you squint, you can almost make him look like Walt Mossberg.

    err… only if you really squint.

    Let’s hope it is a reviewer. Would be sweet if it were coming soon.

    see that’s the whole point right there… a computer for the times when you wouldn’t have thought of a computer before.

    I swear that guy looks like my uncle. He knows nothing about computers, though.

    Can’t wait to get my Foleo. September is almost here!
