As you may well know, HP has acquired Palm and the company has very soon announced the Touchpad, the initial tablet running the webOS. As a side note, HP is reducing Palm brand so we are not going to see products with Palm logo or branding. The new tablet will be released in summer and will run webOS 3.0.
The HP Touchpad is powered by a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8060 1.2GHz processor and 1GB of RAM. It comes with 16GB or 32GB internal storage. The webOS tablet features a 9.7-inch 1024×768 capacitive multitouch display, a 1.3 Mega pixel front-facing camera for video calling, A-GPS support (3G model only), Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and WiFi connectivity.
There are too light sensor, accelerometer, compass (magnetometer), and gyroscope, internal stereo speakers with Beats Audio and a microUSB connector. It also includes Touch to Share feature that allows users to share web addresses easily with Pre 3 simply by tapping them simultaneously.
The HP Touchpad comes with internal rechargeable 6300 mAh (typical) battery. HP will release WiFi only version and 3G+WiFi version. The Touchpad will be available this summer.
