HP left the hardware to software...

HP announced a surprising that important strategic turnaround. Indeed, the manufacturer has decided to terminate its activities in the world of smartphones and tablets and has even planned to sell its PSG (Personal Systems Group) in other words, the personal computer division. The TouchPad Tablet and all phones under WebOS pass and trap. HP so quickly turned the WebOS page while the company had purchased Palm and its operating system for 1.2 billion dollars in April 2010...

At the time, all the manufacturers thought obviously they were going to beat Apple in the field of smartphones and tablets two times and three movements. At the Conference, HP has clearly confessed his failure. To assess the magnitude of the disaster, the American teaches Best Buy sold that 25,000 TouchPad on the 270 000 in stock. Today, two options are emerging for HP: valuing WebOS or sell... HP thus turns the devices page but expects to launch a war of those acquired with the purchase of Palm and Palm OS or even the patent of WebOS.

At the MTP level, computers are not heavy side of printers and servers. Order this activity would therefore not have a too important impact. However, do not propose machine to accompany its servers may not be wise to long term… HP does however not ruled definitively on the matter but no solution is excluded.

These announcements were directly sanctioned by the stock exchange. The action of HP lost 20%... One may wonder how HP intends to sell the Touchpad 64 GB and pre 3 which were presented in the aftermath of these ads more than alarming.
