I'm surprized they did not have a disclaimer saying that the discounted price is applicable only to available inventory.

Are they trying to seed the populace with WebOS devices to secure user-base for future WebOS products? There was some article about them spinning WebOS off into a separate R&D department or some such. Hmm... WebOS not as dead as we were initially led to believe?

HP always said they are keeping WebOS alive. Now they have to separate it from the PC business since they are spinning that off as a separate company and want to keep WebOS at HP. HP only killed the hardware. They are trying to find someone else to make WebOS hardware for them. So far there doesn't seem to be any interested parties though.
