This means that Palm is still an independent company today. So, how would HP be seen if they commented? Not having added this to the context deflects the whole argument here. Also, it seems the writer is not well informed. HP said the prime reason of acquiring Palm was WebOS, not the smartphone business. As devices converge, it makes sense to have an OS that could address the whole mobile space of which smartphones is only one part. Saying that buying an OS is the main reason, does not read to me like HP will leave the smartphone market. By the way HP makes smartphones already and has not been leaving that market either.
