When Palm dropped the Foleo from its product lineup, we at mytreo.net were disappointed.   In our view the ultra-mobile PC segment of the computer market has legs.  There is substantial need for a middle ground between full laptop, which can be cumbersome to lug around, and smartphone, which is oftentimes great for e-mail but simply not robust enough for spreadsheet and even word processing work.

Therefore, we have been delighted to get to know the Celio team.  You may have seen our video interview with the CEO, who introduced us to their new RedFly product, a “big screen and keyboard” attachment for the Treo.  (See “Checkout RedFly” below.) RedFly represents a middle ground between  laptop and smartphone, weighing a fraction of the amount of traditional mobile computer but providing a visual and data entry experience that’s truly exceptional.

Only a very short time after launch, Celio substantially reduced the price from almost $500 down to just $199!
