Hewlett-Packard made a rather interesting statement. The fact is that the company is going to stop producing equipment (tablets and smartphones) for its webOS platform (which in turn was developed by Palm) and shift this “burden” to third-party manufacturers.
In a statement, HP indicated that it was going to stop production of TouchPad tablets and smartphones on webOS. The company said that it will continue to search for partners to promote its webOS, which it bought from Palm a little more than a year ago for $ 1.2 billion.
Through this step, HP hopes to reduce financial losses and concentrate its capital on manufacturing industrial equipment and expanding the production of printers. The company is even going to sell its own Personal Systems Group (PSG) division, which is responsible for sales of PCs and webOS devices.
