I might. Have already tried Android, don't like.
Ari Jaaksi being there, it mustn't be bad
Is there an emulator somewhere? I've never played with a webOS device.

Would like to, would like to very much.

Just scared about possibility of jumping from one abandoned platform to one that might not have long future. I'll wait for a bit and see how HP's first WebOS devices sell.

Me! I hadn't looked that much into it because I was waiting for the Meego to materialize. Now that I have it seems that webOS is not only nice looking, quite open and developer friendly, so I'm setting my sights in that direction. There seems to be a wealth of information at http://www.webos-internals.org/ and the freenet channel is #webos-internals.

It seems that the circle is closing. I started with PalmOS devices m100, Zire 71 and Zire 72, but switched to N800 when Palm stagnated. Now it's time to head back See you on the other side.

WebOS is sure to have at least a few years ahead of it, because it was just released big. Even if it is scrapped later, the situations have then changed and the board looks different from today. It's the same thing as waiting for the latest and greatest device - there's always a better one around the corner

Depends on battery life and price. As contrast to the n900, the veer looks really interesting.

Seriously thinking of it myself.
If they produce something like the N900 I think they'll have a winner.

Don't like that tiny effort at all, looks too much like an old Samsung Slider or the S/E Xperia Mini. I want an N900 screen with full keypad.

WebOS looks like the most attractive alternative atm, though it has only really appeared on my radar in the last day or two. If they add something with a 4" screen and hardware qwerty, then I'm in.

It looks like the 'Competitors' section will be the busiest of all soon.

I have played with Palm Pre - really liked the feel of the OS/UI. Great use of gestures. Nice looking and smooth. If it was not N900/Maemo5 I should have gone with Pre. I didn't like the hardware though - small screen(size/res), awful HW keyboard. Now I see HP Pre3 - looks promising.
