HP discontinues webOS devices!
HP have today announced they will no longer be developing webOS devices, such as the Pre and the TouchPad.
The press release said they would be "discontinuing operations for webOS devices”. This means they will continue to develop webOS as an operating system but will not manufacture hardware.
So, does this mean we will see webOS licensed and appearing on handsets from some of our favorite manufactures such as HTC, Samsung and LG? I do hope so. Since the release of the Palm Pre we here tracyandmatt have all said that the OS was great but sadly let down by hardware.
This news is a real shame but not one that is a total surprise.
