Whitman Wants HP to Keep Up With the Smartphone Joneses

HP CEO Meg Whitman revealed the company plans to launch another smartphone, in what would be a second attempt at the mobile market for the PC giant. Whitman noted last week in an interview with Fox Business News that since HP is a computing company, it should ultimately offer a smartphone. It wouldn't be the company's first foray into the mobile market. In 2010, HP purchased smartphone maker Palm for $1.2 billion and developed webOS, its own mobile operating system. Its TouchPad tablet and Pre smartphone failed to dazzle in the competitive market.
