It’s Official: WebOS Is Divorcing From Palm’s Hardware

That other "TechCrunch As We Know It May Be Over As We Know It" may have been quite prescient... seems like they are down entirely for me right now. Will have to wait to read this article.<p>I am quite curious about the future of WebOS having just experienced it recently on one of the blowout HP Touchpads. I'm rather impressed by it though it runs like crap on the Touchpad. (until you overclock it to 1.7Ghz...then it runs like a charm) The whole 'cards' concept is winning me over. Sad to say I think it's going to become an 'also ran'. I am a Palm fan from way back to my Sony Clie days... here's hoping someone makes good use of a promising system.

Again.<p><a href="http://www.internetnews.com/bus-news/article.php/3547566/PalmSource+Sold+to+Japanese+Firm.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.internetnews.com/bus-news/article.php/3547566/Pal...</a><p>/fixed-story

Isn't this just what Palm did when it was last popular (in the T3/Treo days) - just the opposite of Apple?

It is hard to take HP seriously again. The way they announced everything was a fiasco of epic proportions, eclipsed only by the mad dash to get cheap Touchpads.<p>The funny thing is, the morning after I stopped by an Office Depot and told them what happened, and they said something to the tune of, "But HP is our biggest computer supplier. No way they're getting rid of their computer business." Guess they don't check the news/twitter too often.
