Samsung may have turned down HP’s PC acquisition report but a new rumor suggests that Samsung has hired HP’s ex-VP of PSG Marketing, Raymond Wah. He will reportedly handle sales of Samsung’s PC business. More interestingly, the Digitimes report also claims that Samsung is also looking to buy HP’s webOS platform in a bid to compete with Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android OS.
That would be stupid, as it would weaken Android. Android is the only hope against the dark forces of Apple.
Google is getting a position difficult for hardware Android makers, they already bought Motorola, how knows their future plans? the new and coming versions of Androids will be available to the same time for others than Motorola?
Samsung needs enforce Bada OS and WebOS could give them a big patents folder.
Bada 2.0 is a big forward step for Bada OS.
