HP gets back into the tablet business, unveils $169 Android-powered Slate 7 coming in April
After the whole TouchPad debacle, HP is trying its hand at the tablet thing one more time. This time though, it isn’t webOS doing the powering, but Android. Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, to be precise. And the tablet is called HP Slate 7. As its name implies, it’s a 7-incher. It will be in stores [...]
Some Windows 8 tablets will be priced below $300, 32 different models expected this year
Windows 8 is coming later this year (probably in the third quarter), and it’s going to be Microsoft’s first foray into the recently-reinvented-by-Apple tablet world. With Intel or ARM-based processors, Windows 8 tablets will compete with the iPads and Android offerings out there by the end of this year. And they’ll be reasonably priced, too. [...]
HP sends webOS to death in the hands of “the open source community”, may do tablets again in 2013
webOS’ fate has been sealed. If you were still wondering (in which case you’re unbelievably fanboyish), webOS is dead. Or, at least, the webOS that you and I know is. Officially. So how did HP choose to end this little mobile OS that (once) could? Simple. HP Symbianed webOS. Yes, webOS will be contributed to [...]
HP officially pulls the plug on all webOS devices
Well, this didn’t take long. HP has just confirmed that they will be discontinuing the TouchPad and all webOS phones. This will certainly affect the release of the white 64GB TouchPad we talked about earlier today. Furthermore, this brings credence to the reports Best Buy asking for a refund for HP TouchPads still sitting on the giant retailer [...]

Sources: No one wants an HP Touchpad, and Best Buy wants a refund
Sources tell All Things D’s Arik Hesseldahl that HP’s TouchPad—it’s first WebOS tablet offering—is selling so poorly that one big box retailer is asking for a refund. Best Buy has taken delivery of 270,000 HP TouchPads, selling 25,000. Another source said the 25,000 unit estimate might be considered“charitable.” Best Buy is reportedly so exasperated by [...]

It’s definitely been a long time since HP announced the Pre 3 back in February, yet here we are half a year later and the smartphone still isn’t available to purchase in the UK.

4G HP TouchPad hits FCC, heading to AT&T
A 32GB 4G HP TouchPad has just hit the FCC on its way to AT&T. The device is expected at some point this month thanks to a leaked HP road map. Unfortunately, the 4G HP TouchPad will run on AT&T’s HSPA+ network rather than AT&T’s upcoming LTE network. The 32GB 4G TouchPad will be different [...]

The HP Pre 3 was initially due for release in the UK this month, but it’s since been delayed. Now if you’re really anxious to get your hands on one, you have been able to pre-order it for quite a while now if you wanted its SIM-free and unlocked incarnation. If, however, you’re more into [...]
HP TouchPad will be available in Australia on August 15
The HP TouchPad, the company’s first webOS-based tablet, is already available in North America and in some European markets. So it’s expected that it will slowly make its way to other territories. After all, one of HP’s key strengths is distribution, so it may as well sell the TouchPad in as many countries as it [...]

The HP TouchPad has finally become available outside the US, just five short months after it was announced. The few countries that were lucky enough to be granted the honor of selling the TouchPad starting today are the UK, Canada, Germany, and France. At least those have been confirmed until now. The TouchPad may have [...]
HP Pre 3 may get a dual-core 1.2 GHz processor (at least in the UK)
The HP Pre 3 was announced all the way back in February, yet unlike the HP TouchPad and the HP Veer that were also announced at the same time, HP’s flagship smartphone still isn’t available anywhere. In the UK, we heard that it would launch on July 8, but that obviously hasn’t happened and there [...]
AT&T to get the HP TouchPad 4G soon, with a 300 MHz processor speed boost
AT&T is about to get its very own version of the HP TouchPad webOS tablet. HP has just officially announced the TouchPad 4G, which will become available on AT&T “in time for back to school”.

Sprint won’t get the HP Pre 3
The HP Pre 3 is the first high-end webOS-powered smartphone to be developed after HP purchased Palm. And while it’s still not available in the US, it is coming soon, and, HP hopes, will put webOS back on the map, so to speak. Sprint was the launch partner for the original Pre, a device that [...]
HP Pre 3 apparently delayed ’til late July in the UK
Last time we heard about them, the HP TouchPad and HP Pre 3 were supposed to be released in the first half of this month. Unfortunately, it looks like HP won’t be able to ship the devices in due time. According to Clove, which currently takes pre-orders for both the TouchPad and the Pre 3, [...]
7-inch HP Opal tablet may launch in August
Back in January we first heard some leaked tidbits about HP’s plans in the tablet space. And what we heard back then was that HP was working on two webOS-powered tablets. In the meantime, of course, one of those turned out to be the TouchPad, previously known by its codename Topaz. Yet alongside the Topaz [...]
