HP in talks with labels about cloud music service
Hewlett-Packard is hard at work laying the foundation for their own music locker service. In the wake of Amazon, Google and Apple publicizing their latest efforts to move user’s music collections to the cloud, HP has been negotiating terms with music labels for their own yet-to-be-named service, Billboard reports. HP has already hinted at such [...]
HP TouchPad demo videos released
With the TouchPad’s July 1st release date quickly approaching, it only makes sense for HP to release some demo videos to show off some of the cool new features WebOS looks to bring to the tablet market. HP shows off four key features of webOS: Synergy, Just Type, Multitasking, and Notifications. HP TouchPad’s Synergy is basically [...]
HP TouchPad to be available June 22nd?
We know for a fact that the TouchPad will be released at some point in June, but HP has yet to confirm an exact date. We’ve heard tons of rumors, but nothing too convincing yet. The latest rumor comes from enterprise vendor Synnex. Synnex has the 16GB TouchPad for $499 and the 32GB at $599. [...]
White AT&T HP Veer now just $0.01 at Amazon (with contract)
The HP Veer is the company’s little brother to the Pre 3. It signifies HP’s efforts to put webOS into the hands of the ‘average consumer’, not someone who usually targets smartphones when buying a new handset. The Veer is a bit exclusive also, in that it really can’t be used by people (read: men) [...]
HP TouchPad may launch on June 12
HP’s first webOS-powered tablet, the TouchPad, is going to be a nice entrance in the tablet market which is getting more and more crowded by the day. That’s even if the TouchPad won’t manage to outsell Apple’s iPad, as HP seems to think will happen. We’ve heard before that the TouchPad may finally launch in [...]
HP is delusional, thinks the Touchpad will sell more than the iPad
Today’s funny moment is brought to you by HP. More specifically, Eric Cador, HP’s European head, has said that HP’s Touchpad is going to be “better than number one”, “number one plus”. Okay, so he didn’t actually say that the Touchpad will sell better than the iPad, although that’s clearly what he implied. Not saying [...]
HP TouchPad 32 GB coming to Walmart for $599
The HP TouchPad is expected to launch at some point this summer, but HP has been kept its mouth shut on many details of the tablet. We saw a leaked leaked lineup sheet back in March that indicated the TouchPad would arrive in June and would be priced similar to the iPad. Today, a leaked [...]
Verizon’s HP Pre 3 passes the FCC
Back in April, we saw a version of HP’s Pre 3 running on Verizon’s network. While Verizon still hasn’t announced it would offer the smartphone, it may do it quite soon, since a CDMA / EvDo Pre 3 has been approved by the FCC yesterday. The Pre 3 approved by the Federal Commission also has [...]
HP Veer 4G announced by AT&T, will be available on May 15
Well, what do you know, the tiny HP Veer is coming to AT&T later this month: today, the carrier has officially announced that the smartphone would be exclusively available to its customers starting May 15, in two color versions (black and white). Since it’s one of the “20 4G devices” that AT&T will introduce “by [...]
White HP Veer 4G coming to AT&T soon?
Officially introduced way back in February alongside the HP Pre 3 and the HP TouchPad, the Palm HP Veer seems to be making its way to AT&T. Some press photos of a Veer running on AT&T’s network have appeared over at Pocket Now. Surprisingly, this is a white version of the Veer (unannounced until now). [...]
HP TouchPad passes FCC, will launch soon
HP’s first attempt at a tablet, the TouchPad, just passed through the FCC today. This means that a commercial launch is imminent. A leaked document that was discovered early March stated that the TouchPad was expected to launch in June. Today’s FCC passing confirms that the TouchPad is on schedule for a June release. The [...]
HP Veer will be available from O2 Germany in June, reserve yours now
The HP Veer is certainly a slick looking little smartphone (even though it may be a bit too tiny for the average human being). We’ve known for a while that it was headed to O2 in Germany, with the carrier previously announcing that it would become available in May. Apparently something came up, since O2 [...]
Screenshots of WebOS 3.0 Leak, Show off HP TouchPad
We’ve seen pictures taken of HP’s new version of WebOS before, but now we have actually found some screenshots, courtesy of PreCentral. These shots show a few aspects of the OS, as if it were on the HP TouchPad. We still don’t know when we’ll actually be able to get some hands-on time with WebOS [...]
New HP WebOS smartphone (Stingray?) and Verizon Pre 3 leaked
Since HP took over Palm, the company announced only two new smartphones: the HP Pre 3, and the HP Veer. A third one may come soon, and, unlike the Pre 3 and the Veer, it seems that it won’t have a QWERTY keyboard. PreCentral received an image which allegedly shows the upcoming HP smartphone. Possibly [...]
HP Veer will be available from O2 Germany in May
The HP Veer is an odd little device, supposedly the successor to the Palm Pixi. It was announced at the same time as the Pre 3 and Touchpad tablet, though understandably it has received a lot less coverage than those two. After all, this isn’t the latest webOS-powered flagship smartphone, or the first webOS-based tablet [...]
HP TouchPad to be launched in June after all
When HP announced the WebOS-based TouchPad, the company said the tablet would be released “in the summer.” Unfortunately, this doesn’t mean April (as recently rumored). Fortunately, it also does not mean July, and neither August. According to PreCentral, Leo Apotheker (HP CEO) has confirmed at the most recent HP Summit that the TouchPad would be [...]
Verizon Palm Pre 2 now free on contract
Although the HP Pre 3 has been announced recently, Verizon has only gotten around to starting selling the Palm Pre 2 in the second half of last month. Having the newer model announced while trying to sell the older model can clearly hurt sales, and Verizon’s decision to stock the Pre 2 so late (after [...]
HP TouchPad Closer to Reality, Listed on Amazon
One sure sign that a product is coming in the near future is by finding a page for that product on Amazon. Such is the case with the HP TouchPad, which now owns its own little piece of real estate on the shopping giant’s site. While the TouchPad itself is listed as “currently not available” [...]
HP TouchPad Could Come as Early as April
Where I live, April is definitely not part of the Summer, though I really wish it is. If new rumors from DigiTimes are to be believed, HP is planning to launch the TouchPad — its WebOS tablet debut — in April, with shipments sent out late March. Originally HP announced the TouchPad would be available [...]
HP Touchpad, Veer and Pre 3 hands-on videos #MWC11
Last week HP had showed the world how they are going to get back into mobile game with WebOS products that they have acquired with Palm Inc. Their new offerings – the next generation of WebOS, Touchpad tablet, Pre 3 and Veer smartphones looked pretty cool. We’ve covered the new device specs and features already, [...]
