HP has announced that they decided to stop the line WebOS devices, including smartphones and Tablet touchpad. HP has the option to use WebOS its operating system on devices such as printers, or maybe a laptop, but these will never replace the smartphones and tablets. Another option is to license the operating system, and directly compete with Android and Windows Phone 7.
