"Company officials told ZDNet that open sourcing WebOS was the best move after the company reviewed the various possibilities for the mobile operating system. There are two reads on the WebOS news: HP couldn’t find a reasonable buyer or the company is betting it can take off on its own."
"HP is offering TouchPads to developers for $150. The question is why should anyone develop apps for a dead platform?"
"It's a strong testament to the power of Linux that HP has chosen WebOS as the platform for many upcoming phones, tablets, printers and PCs. WebOS is, of course, based on Linux, and its official launch on HP's new TouchPad this week marks its official debut in the tablet space."
"The move should also be considered something of a shot across Microsoft's bow. By providing webOS on PCs, HP is positioned to provide PC users something that Microsoft still cannot: a proper tablet experience. That's not much of an endorsement of either Redmond's current tablet solutions—or its strategy for the future."
