HP made its play for the lucrative mobile market with a number of products that will be powered using its own operating system, sending a message to Microsoft that the clock is ticking for its Windows OS. During a two-hour presentation at a disused fort situated by San Francisco Bay, the world’s biggest technology company unveiled two new phones and its long awaited tablet computer that will be driven by its webOS. The Veer is tiny, the size of a credit card and the Pre3 is aimed at the smartphone market. The centre piece of the whole presentation at Fort Mason was the TouchPad. Apart from all the specs, I can’t really say how it handles because the demos in the backstage area were done by HP professionals and we mere mortals were not even allowed to touch them.
