Coder claims logs show WebOS netbook in pipe
One WebOS developer has claimed to have found proof that HP is working on a WebOS-based tablet. Coder Thomas Perraudin says he found the following in his developer logs: {"ModelName" "(Device)", "modelNameAscii": "Device" "platformVersion": "Nova Dartfish," platformVersionMajor ": -1," platformVersionMinor ": -1," …
Not necessarily
The first more looks like a WebOs shell on top of a notebook, not a "WebOS notebook". Note that the -1 in the version numbers. It is a give-away that it is not a standard OS train.
Maybe I'm stupid
How das screenheight 768pixel and maxcardheight 740 pixel hint for a netbooks with 600pixel?
Improved TouchPad?
Errr... the spec snippet in the article describes a 1024x768 screen, not a 1024x600 screen.
Pedantic? Moi?
Not at all. But I do love the image of water flying under a bridge.

the expression "Missed the boat" keeps flooding my mind. I wonder why?
huh? WebOS tablet is well known
surely this is just a log from a WebOS tablet visiting his site rather than a netbook? the WebOS tablet is well known - though not released until summer this year - some lucker testers have them though
The title is required, and must contain letters and/or digits.
Could this not equally be refering to a fondle slab?
tablet w/ keyboard?
Could it be for a tablet with a bluetooth keyboard, or a "transformer" type tablet?
EXACTLY fishman...
"keyboard available: true" isn't the same as "non-removable keyboard installed at the factory: true"
And tablets have the same res as netbooks (or better in some cases) so screen res is no indication either.

This is not news
I knew this yesterday - HP has it posted on the front page of their site, for the love of all things holy!
shops
Never mind the web site - they need to post them to the shops!
