WebOS is a great product, but over the years the team at Palm and HP lead by Rubinstein have failed to fix it's core operational problems - mainly it's sluggishness and bugs. Why have those two factors been so neglected? The resulting operating system has a great design (and very few will detest that) but fails in operational every day use due to a sub-par user experience due to lag. I'd love to see WebOS live on. Hopefully this management change isn't too late in the game and the new guy in charge of WebOS realizes it's problems.
