The Death of HP's WebOS

What a shocker! Well, probably, not really a shocker. Within a mere weeks of launching their TouchPad, HP announced that it will kill off it's WebOS devices. And for good reason; sluggish sales.

So who's to blame?

The HP TouchPad looks promising

HP has unveiled their tablet at a press event yesterday. It's called the TouchPad and I have to tell you, some of the features on this thing are really interesting. This looks like a genuine iPad-competitor (hate to use that term but that's the way it's always going to be). HP has also come out with two smart phones in the Veer and Pre 3 which are supposed to work in sync with the TouchPad.

2011: A Year for Tablets

As each December day passes by and we near the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2011 (January 6-9), one thing becomes clearer. 2011 is going to be a year for tablets. Apple set the benchmark earlier this year with the extremely successful iPad and competitors are often found trying to keep up with the technology. It's only a matter of time before we see tablets that truly compete with the versatility, ease-of-use and features that the iPad promises. And then there will be the iPad 2!
