The big
news this weekend is that
HP are quitting the hardware and WebOs game. This means all of those people who bought
HP phones and
HP Touchpads over the months can look forward to a life of 0
updates, bugfixes and likely lack of new applications!
The good
news however is that you can pick up a 13Gb
HP Touchpad in
Canada and the US for $99! and the 32Gb for $149! The online
HP Store is already showing
sold out though and it seems Bestbuy are running out also (even with that huge amount of unsold
stock).
Not all retailers have followed suit though, as
Amazon are still showing Touchpads at full price.
Gadget fans in
Europe and the
UK shouldn't get too excited either as there has been no word on when or if the huge
price drop will land there.
