This is tough... I was ready to order a nokia n800 but waited until this announcement... I have a very capable smartphone currently but decided that I wanted a larger display and more capable browser...
The deciding factor for me was going to be the CPU, what memory cards it supported and the display quality... on first glance the foleo looked exactly like what I wanted but after hearing Hawkins admit to the machine being underpowered for flash video playback I can only assume the processor is not much better than the nokia n800. Also debating if I would prefer a touchscreen and more portability.... so despite being initially drawn in by the foleo I am slowly coming back to the realization that the n800 may be the best device for me.
The biggest draw is the maturity of the internet tablet development community... looking on palm's site I see there are no developer tools available until they are closer to release.
I guess my ideal device would fall somewhere between the two... I wish nokia would release a nokia 880 which would have a more powerful CPU, and a 5" display
