Tech Ticker

If you thought Google’s acquisition of Motorola was the biggest tech news this week, HP has taken the cake by announcing to discontinue webOS. The exact reason is unknown but HP will stop producing webOS devices, which includes all the webOS phones and TouchPad tablet. HP hasn’t mentioned anything about webOS except that they’ll ” continue to explore options to optimize the value,” which in other words could mean HP is looking for buyers.

In another surprising news, HP is trying to consider options for its hardware business like completely spinning off the unit or a part.
