You're excused if you didn't notice a pair of memos leaked to PreCentral this weekend. It was a holiday and, more important, neither of them particularly matter.They involved HP's WebOS initiative and they state, in short, that the hardware part of the team is hitting the bricks while the software group will remain ensconced close to HP's putrescent heart. Why? Because HP wanted some leverage against the coming juggernaut that is Windows 8 and, more important, HP needs a small and light platform for future enterprise devices that doesn't cost them a few dollars per seat in royalties. I doubt seriously that that's what Mark Hurd wanted before he screwed up but that's what we got: a neutered platform that may or may not exist after the next shareholder's meeting.
