However, there are many customers who already purchased the HP TouchPad through HP or another retailer before the immense price cut took place. To remedy the situation, HP is offering customers a full… Full Story » | Written by Natesh Sood for . | Comment on this Article »
 
Earlier today we mentioned the Walmart Wireless price for the Sprint BlackBerry Bold 9930 and it looks like there is also a listing for the Torch 9850. And similar to the price of the 9930, the Torch 9850 is also priced less expensive as compared to direct with Sprint.

In short, ViewSonic has stated that “in the wake of HP's failed webOS initiative” they are going to remain true to their “tablet strategy.” HP's move to launch a tablet with an unknown OS appears to have presented a challenge in marketing their tablet solution. The webOS, unfamiliar to both consumers and enterprises, complicated the tablet sales process and thus deemed a failed experiment. Sure, it may be a bit harsh and also a bit true… Full Story » | Written by Robert Nelson for . | Comment on this Article »
