We certainly hope you haven't just spent your hard earned money on a webOS device when reading this. In today's third quarter results report, the computer behemoth announced that it "will discontinue operations for webOS devices, specifically the TouchPad and webOS phones."
According to HP, "The devices have not met internal milestones and financial targets." To put it better in plain language,they did not sell enough webOS devices - hardly a surprise given the lack of developed apps for the webOS ecosystem.
The beautifully looking OS might just continue living on in printers or cars' entertainment/navigation systems, or get licensed to an interested party. However, as far as mobile devices are concerned, it is all over.
