What does that mean?

  • It means HP wants to be a contender in the smartphone market.
  • It means HP doesn’t want to be a slave to Microsoft.
  • It means HP isn’t smitten by Windows Mobile 7.
  • It means HP doesn’t think that the iPhone and Android phones have that market sewn up.

It means options for the consumer.
