HP and Palm tie-up makes sense when your HP products handheld and see how they are desperate for a good functioning systemperhaps WebOS Palm.

Yesterday, HP offers to buy the beleaguered Palm. HP / Palm tie-ups really started to make sense when your HP products handheld and see how they are all desperate for a decent operating system. Palm WebOS, of course, is the operating system has more-than-Decent.

We give technical excellence awards, as it foreshadows the world, based on the HTML5 cloud-centric, so that the developer also offers a way to access 3D graphics and other materials through a plug-in Kit Development.

Palm handhelds are a good product. They have no more meetings with factors (carrier enthusiasm SDK slow-to-roll-out, a lot of competition, advertising is very poor, etc.) rather than because there is a big mistake.

The new Palm Pre Verizon Wireless batches Over $ 49especially because you can use it as a Wi-Fi hotspotbut not many takers. Original Sprint Palm Pre sold very well, but not enough to support the company. Palm Smartphone I think the two important messages mobile social ones, but poor marketing has really taken place.

In recent years, stabbed in the space HP handheld and portable, meanwhile, has been retained by the incompatibility of the operating system, if it was an ancient-looking Windows Mobile 6. 5 in the latest iPaq or a little uncomfortable sitting in Airlife Android Compaq 100.

HP also promises “a new slate tablet, which is a small touch screen device running the full version of Windows OS 7A which is not primarily designed for touchscreen devices small.

Thus, if HP has decided to hold the air WebOSand willthe company will eventually have a powerful software platform for handheld hardware coverage. We gave a good rating for the HP Pocket equipment in the past. The iPAQ 910 won an Editor Options “as a smartphone, a serious matter. We also like the iPAQ 210, one of the last strong, independent PDAs. But the mobile phone market is measured in dog years, it’s really saying something that both products are still sold from 2008 through the HP website.

The only handheld we’ve seen from HP was recently named sparkling bad, which has been condemned both by the design is boring and outdated software. The brilliant, perhaps to prove that HP does not have much power, the mobile software programmers in-house as HTC. Now, with Palm, it does not work.

WebOS can not be solely accountable for the iPAQ. When I was hands on time with 100 Airlife Compaq laptop at Mobile World Congress, I said that there is something interesting about the device, a light fine, but not the OS. HP must customize Android Airlife, losing compatibility with thousands of Android application downloads.

It is not difficult to see Palm WebOS appear in the next generation of this productsor pocket, even on the version of the next generation of novel Airlife and slate. It will be interesting to see that this is not the relationship with Microsoft to HP, though. By running Android on Airlife, it clearly violates a home free from the Microsoft exclusive. But the company is engaged in January to build a phone to Windows 7 Phone said: “Our work goes hand in hand with Microsoft to develop a signature device to the next generation of their operating system.” Then Windows Phone WebOS 7 and coexistence in HP? We’ll see.
