The foleo could do web on its own. What was never adequately answered was that of email. Sometimes it sounded as if it could do email on its own, other times that it needed to sync with the palm phone for that. This on top of trying to get it to not only talk nicely to palmos devices, but winmob device (i suspect microsoft where stalling as much as they could get away with there).
