HP will 'discontinue operations for webOS devices', may spin off Personal Systems Group

So where is the best home for webOS - LG, HTC, Samsung, other? HP bought the webOS (palm) environment a little more than a year ago for $1.2 Billion. It's interesting that they are yielding to Google and Apple so quickly. So, are we down to a 2 horse race for domination of the mobile handset space or is Microsoft still a contender?

The Wall
I would say "so long, goodbye" webOS.

Truthfully, I need to think about it.

$1.2 Billion dollar write-off if they don't find a buyer for webOS - WOW!  that's a big write-off.

Yep it is a big write-off.  H-P really wants to change its business.  Definitely a big write-off.
