WebOS was amazing for its time (even though the hardware was mediocre at best). I joined HP in order to fight Googles and Apples hold on the mobile OS market.

WebOS was amazing for its time (even though the hardware was mediocre at best). I joined HP in order to fight Googles and Apples hold on the mobile OS market. Everyone can join the winning team, but I wanted to join the underdog. Then they dropped it before I even officially started. Pretty sad, even though I found other cool projects to work on, not much had the same potential to turn around the whole company imho.
