The Palm® Foleo™ Mobile companion that doesn’t want to be your laptop. It’s lightweight, elegant and thoughtfully designed for the things you do most on the go
Think about the work you do on the go. If you’re like most people, you check email, visit websites, and maybe look at a photo or two. Your smartphone is great for these things when you’re looking for quick bits of information or sending a brief response to an email. There are times you may want a big screen and keyboard to view attachments, type longer emails, or get a bigger look at web pages and photos you’d normally view on your smartphone. But you’d rather not take your laptop along—and let’s face it, you don’t always need everything on it.
The Palm® Foleo™ mobile companion doesn’t want to be your laptop. It’s lightweight, elegant and thoughtfully designed for the things you do most on the go. Press one button and it’s on. Instantly. Press another button and watch as Foleo connects wirelessly with your smartphone to bring your inbox to the big screen. You can also view and edit Office documents and even run PowerPoint® presentations from it. And with up to five hours of battery life packed into such a compact design, you’ll do big things wherever you go. So leave your laptop docked at your desk more often. With the Foleo mobile companion, you carry only what you need. Not everything you have.
Why a mobile companion?
Mobile companions are made for the way people work in this increasingly mobile world. In fact, according to industry watchers, 60% of the U.S. workforce is already mobile, and that number is growing faster than the experts expected.2 With more and more smartphones on high-speed networks, larger amounts of digital content and people increasingly on the go, suddenly the idea of a mobile companion makes perfect sense.
After all, while smartphones help you boost productivity and manage an active life, there are still times when you want a larger screen and keyboard. Like when you receive a spreadsheet or PDF email attachment. Or when you need to compose emails longer than just a few sentences.
The lighter side of mobile life.
Weighing just two pounds, Foleo is easy to carry and even easier to use. Just unfold it, touch a button, and it’s instantly on and ready for work. Then close it up when you’re done, and your email or document is saved automatically. In the spirit of true mobility, you can even work for up to five hours without worrying about battery life.
From people who understand mobile life.
At Palm, we don’t think about technology for technology’s sake. We think about technology for people’s sake. Which is why the simple touch of a button turns Foleo on or off. Another touch syncs your wireless email.1 The innovative scroll wheel and previous/next buttons were designed for the way people actually work with email and the web. It might feel like magic, but that’s just Palm.
Give your smartphone a big screen and keyboard.
If you like your smartphone, you’ll love the Palm® Foleo™ mobile companion. It connects wirelessly with your device to let you read and write longer emails and view attachments with ease. Think of it as the big screen and keyboard your smartphone has always wanted.
Accomplish more, wait less.
No more sending a short email response when you really have lots to say. No more waiting until you’re back at your desk to download and review attachments. With Foleo, you download what you need and deal with it now, not later.
Connect with your smartphone at the touch of a button.
Simply unfold your Foleo, press one button, and—thanks to Bluetooth® wireless technology—you’re looking at the same email inbox that’s on your smartphone. Then view, respond, create or delete an email, and the changes will be reflected back on your device. Voila.
Use VersaMail or Outlook Mobile.
Work email or personal email. Yahoo accounts or corporate accounts. With Foleo plus a Palm Treo™ smartphone and a wireless email account, you’re in business, big time.
