Why would HP use Palm's OS instead of Android? Seriously, what possible reason?
Nothing against the Palm OS, it's fine, but Android is more robust and open, and has two orders of magnitude more apps already.
As for the rest of the thread ... okay, so Apple is about to be destroyed by competitors AND Apple is about to be destroyed by the government for being a monopoly. OK. Let me take a guess. You don't like Apple.
As far as the actual topic of the thread ... WePad is way too imitative of iPad. Changing it is good for all concerned. WeTab is a better name anyway.
The WeTab seems like an interesting product, although I'd be concerned about the size and battery life. I'm not sure why they used linux instead of Android.
