Any developer who spends time on webOS now is deluded. It is possible that webOS will continue but are you going to bet your livelihood on that? If the largest PC hardware builder in the world can't build a successful webOS device, who can? I'm not seeing a lot of possibilities for licensing or outright sale of webOS. Android is free and open source (for the most part.) If you are a hardware manufacturer who wants to own your own OS, fork Android and go from there. If you just want to license an OS, go with Android and forgo paying HP for a license.
