HP Says Goodbye to Web OS, TouchPad for $99


The end of Web OS has finally arrived. Hp has finally announced that the struggling Web OS platform has quit the race for mobile dominance. The road has been a steady decline, as iOS, Android, and Blackberry OS took over as the big dogs in town (RIM be prepared). After what some can say dismal sales of the HP TouchPad, HP has officially given up. To give you guys a clue at how bad sales were, only 10% of stock was sold at Best Buy. The reviews of the TouchPad weren't well either, with multiple critics siting what could only be called a device that is generally lagging. HP did offer some good news about the device. The price of the Tablet has now become $99 dollars at Best Buy. A lot cheaper than the previous $499 price tag. Online stores have already been cleaned out, which means old fashion driving to the store might be your only option, however, we can't say there will be any left in stock either.
