TouchPad is sold out of balance after market HP

Less than 48 hours after the announcement of HP out of the market for PCs and mobile devices WebOS in USA and Canada are paying off their pills.

The strategy does not block Hewlett-Packard or at least have innovated a different path than the other competitors in the business has not gone well. WebOS Operating System based on Linux and introduced by Palm, who later was acquired by HP, has been orphaned after the company's decision to get out of the market for PCs and abandon the equipment divisions.
HP wants to redirect their business towards services

A little less than a year, HP launched the operating system WebOS, entering fully in this way in the software market for smartphones. In this way, managers launched a cracking a market that was beginning to polarize between Apple and Google.

But it went further. Although Steve Jobs and announce that the PC era had come to an end, since HP gambled not only sell PCs and software, but to include the operating system on their own PCs WebOS

But one thing is quite another to sell and make money. The surgical procedure of amputation of the computer division made in the company responds to review their strategies. But it seems that now they realize what the whole world had seen or at least to where everyone is heading. It is much more profitable to provide services that build equipment.

Almost one third of sales came from HP's PC sales but in terms of benefits, the situation was tending to failure. And it's HP goes wrong, quite the opposite. According to spokesmen have indicated the company so far this fiscal year in 2011 its shares have risen from $ 1.16 to $ 1.23 trading, which in a year as turbulent as this is quite an achievement, as Jason Cross has been published in Computerworld.
Balance WebOS products

In short, although not decided what to do with the remains of the company amputated, what is clear is that HP will not stay in business WebOS devices, especially with their pitching star, and mobile tablet WebOS TouchPad .

And the balances were not waiting. The first country where there have been cuts in Canada has been the wholesaler Best Buy is offering the TouchPad card equipped with 16 gigabytes for $ 99. The HP recommended price before the announcement was $ 399. Immediately the race to sell the stock has become frenzied sell even for teams whose obsolescence is guaranteed.

Indeed, the equipment and appliances chain Best Buy, has announced that its U.S. centers will be open Sunday from 10 am to facilitate the sale of the tablet from HP.
Dell and Apple, the big winners

There are many companies that have rubbed their hands at the announcement of HP, but Dell and Apple, each in his field seem to be the big winners at the sight of everyone. Dell will probably be launched to collect the remains of the PC market that HP and Apple frees mobile phones to boost output to fall icloud.

However, it appears that the distribution of the pie could have another great guest, Google. The Mountain View giant is positioning itself beyond the services and want to go with the ram of your operating system Android, and shielded by the acquisition of Motorola and patents, in the business of smartphones.

However, HP has already warned that although interrupted mobile marketing their WebOS, will continue to explore options to optimize the value of WebOS. It seems an innocent explanation but in a technological world where everything moves so fast, if you're inside, you're out.

So at least have understood that investors have begun to sell shares of the company. Simply opening Friday on Wall Street, securities fell more than 26% and rallied throughout the day, closing with losses of 26.98%.
HP's decision could be good for the consumer

This is not good for their investors, but according to some analysts need not be the consumers. From a technological standpoint, the market is saturated with products and wars like the one being carried out in the field of mobile phones and smartphones.

On the other hand, if believing in HP's explanations for taking the time to redirect the business of WebOS is possible that with the experience gained over many decades, could launch future products that actually meet the public.

However, we should remember the month of February was the debut of the TouchPad, which today is the tablet of balance.
