HP should reward leakers with 1 million $$$.

Where and when did HP learned product marketing? Stone age mars?

controlled leak is exactly what they need.

If they're upset about the latest round of leaks then that's probably a good indication that the leaks we've recently seen are what we'll see on Feb 9.

Here is the best line from the article:

"The meeting obviously wasn't effective -- because we know about it."

Is it just me or is this site becoming a tablet oriented site ):

[cjdaniel]

No, still in portrait mode for me.

Those documents are fairly old in nature, and who knows when the person who leaked them got them. What's worse than having all your big announcements leak? Having them raise expectations above what you're actually launching. If HP shows up on the 9th with a $600 dollar tablet that launches in June with specs that are already being beaten by other competitors it will look terrible even at first blush. The engadgets and gizmodos of the world will dismiss it, and the tech media will move on before it even has a chance. Personally I'm far less concerned about the hardware specs than I am about how ready HP is to support this device. Those developer documents and API's better not be a joke or it will be the Pre all over again.

More like a phone forum that has more info on new sister products, i.e. tablets, than new phones.

It seemed headed to becoming an android site, so this is an improvement.

[rawdeadfish]

Eh, I guess, I just wonder why there has not been a phone "leak" yet we know everything about the pads or whatever, frustrating -.-

Maybe they divided up the task between units. You could have one section of the Personal Systems Group working on the pad while the Palm Global Unit works on the phones. You've never seen folks at Palm leak information way before an announcement. That could explain the tight lipped appearance when it comes to phone leaks.

+1. battery was my top reason to get an ipad. Now im spoiled and wont settle for less. I am thinking about getting A tablet for the parents in the 2011 holiday season, and did want one with flash support for them. Hp will have to bring their game to compete for this purchase.

Just like storage options, why can't they offer battery options, just like on laptops?
