Hang on to your Palm Pre, it may become a collector’s item
This is what HP’s CEO Mark Hurd said yesterday at a technology conference:
We didn’t buy Palm to be in the smartphone business. And I tell people that, but it doesn’t seem to resonate well. We didn’t buy Palm to be in the smartphone business, and we are not going to spend billions of dollars trying to go into the smartphone business; that doesn’t in any way make any sense. According to Hurd, HP was actually more interested in Palm’s IP – specifically webOS, which he wants to put on “tens of millions of HP small form-factor web-connected devices”
He is either nuts or lying. I hope it is the latter.
