SMB News From NetworkWorld: HP Will Introduce Two iPad Killers

Stephen Lawson of IDG News Service analyses the announcement from HP that it will produce two tablet computers, one for enterprises, one to compete more directly with Apple’s iPad.


“Hewlett-Packard will use Windows 7 in a tablet exclusively for enterprises, while making a consumer-oriented unit based on WebOS, Personal Systems Group executive Phil McKinney confirmed Wednesday at the annual AlwaysOn Stanford Summit.

The sprawling technology vendor is taking a targeted approach to its upcoming tablets, which will go up against Apple’s blockbuster iPad and other devices, including Cisco’s recently announced Cius business tablet. Asked whether HP is also interested in Android devices, McKinney said HP is focusing exclusively on two operating systems, Windows 7 and WebOS. McKinney is vice president and chief technology officer of the Personal Systems Group.”
