HP's Slate To Be Replaced By WebOS Tablet?

itwbennett writes "Last week the rumor mill was rumbling about the demise of HP's Slate. 'This past weekend brought fresh rumors to the surface,' writes blogger Peter Smith. 'Now the insiders are saying that the Slate will be reborn as the HP Hurricane, and it will run WebOS. That makes perfect sense given HP's recent purchase of Palm and HP's declaration that they were 'doubling down on WebOS.' More surprising is the rumored launch date of Q3 of this year, which seems like a pretty fast turn-around. Particularly so if HP ditches the Atom and goes with an ARM processor, which Electronista suggests it would have to do.'"

Peter Smith=serious business

Peter Smith's slightly skewed profile picture exudes serious business to me. One look at that grimacing countenance and I'm ready to follow him to the gates of Hell...and, if necessary, liveblog about our encounters with demons! And of course, my preferred demon-liveblogging OS is WebOS!
