We strongly suspect that Palm has always intended to get webOS on a tablet device &#8211; they just needed to make a beachhead in the smartphone space first. When they first unveiled webOS back in January, Palm insisted that this platform would be around for &quot;ten years&quot; and they knew how to grow it. Palm has made the same statement many times since then. For all we know, Palm already has a plan for exactly what they think webOS on a tablet should look like &#8211; they just lacked the resources to make good on that vision. With HP in the picture, that&#8217;s not really a problem anymore.<\/p>\n<p class=\"rteright\"><em>Source: <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2010\/04\/29\/hewlett-packard-to-kill-windows-7-tablet-project\/\"><em>TechCrunch<\/em><\/a><em>.
