This isn't new news Ive been waiting for that tablet and the next generation of webos phones to come out for a while. HP announced it as their plan as soon as they bought Palm. They are going to include WebOS in every thing even a striped down version as an embedded OS in their printers. the announcement last year of the Web OS based tablet is the primary reason I havent considered buying an ebook reader yet.
