As the world's largest PC and printing business, we make it matter for
hundreds of millions of people each and every day. Today we are taking an
important step to serve even more customers in new and exciting ways.
I am pleased to announce that we are creating a team dedicated to delivering
the best mobility solutions in the industry. With this move, we are
building on our commitment to re-invest in mobility via dedicated leadership
, focused research and development, amazing new products and a growing suite
of applications and services.
Our new Mobility Global Business Unit initially will focus on consumer
tablets and will expand to additional segments and categories where we
believe we can offer differentiated value to our customers. Our existing
notebook teams, including our soon-to-be launched commercial tablet, will
remain within the PC GBU under James Mouton at this time.
To lead the Mobility GBU, I am thrilled to announce that we have recruited a
proven executive from the mobile-device industry. Alberto Torres, who most
recently oversaw the MeeGo products and platform at Nokia as Executive Vice
President, will join HP as Senior Vice President of Mobility, reporting to
me.
I am excited to have Alberto join us. During his seven years at Nokia, he
held a variety of critical leadership positions, including two years on the
company's Executive Board. In earlier roles at Nokia, Alberto ran the
company's premium brand, its accessory and CDMA businesses and corporate
strategy. Prior to Nokia, he was a partner at McKinsey and Company, where he
worked with industry leaders in mobile devices, consumer technologies,
software and Internet services. A Ph.D in computer science from Stanford
University, Alberto currently holds vice chairman roles with the firms Bang
& Olufsen and Opera Software.
Alberto's first order of business will be to accelerate our tablet strategy
and begin to execute products against our consumer/SMB target. The exact
structure of his team will follow that strategy.
Alberto's start date will be September 3. Please join me in welcoming
Alberto to HP and in supporting him and his team in their important work.

-----------HP Memo----
Hi everyone,
Thank you for all of your enthusiasm at yesterday’s new brand
announcement: GRAM. We hope you will fall in love with the brand just as
lots of us have already.
Please note that our Mission, Values and Plan of Action are the same. We
are continuing to march forward on our timelines as usual─nothing new
there.
We have much work to do, and, again, I solicit your help.
Yes, this is a new brand─it is just the beginning, and there is so much
more to do. And yet unveiling the new brand is also a Call to Action:
Try it on. We don’t expect you to love it overnight. We are no longer a
consumer hardware brand, we are a different company with focus on software,
User Experience, Cloud, engineering and partnering. This change in identity
will take some getting used to and that’s normal.
Stealth mode. We are an incubation company, and we are trusting you to
keep this company name and product under the radar to give it time to take
root and grow. You can wear the logo, help build the momentum of the new
identity, talk to your families and friends about it. If someone from the
outside asks, you can say, “GRAM is a new company. We are in stealth mode
on our product offering.”
Tap your network. Help us hire the best and the brightest, refer your
friends and help us in our shared purpose as we continue our rise to the top
. You can use the name to help us to recruit.
Be the culture. Spread our Values: People Matter. Integrity and Trust.
Deliberate Innovation. Act small, deliver big.
For those of you who could not attend yesterday’s unveiling – we
really missed you. Please be on the lookout for the gift bags with our new
cool branded items, which we be mailing out to you this and next week. All
of you should get one, if not – let me know.
Best
Martin Risau

这个新招的人是stanford cs phd，麦肯锡出来的，估计会按麦肯锡式分析，不是
android就是win8，跟webos一点关系不会有。
另外，webos改成gram不是为了吸引投资，之前那个verge长文不是早有人说过了
Multiple sources tell us that there are specific tax benefits to keeping
Palm "on the books" until July 1st, the second anniversary of the completion
of HP's acquisition, and that Whitman could conceivably drop the axe
shortly thereafter — the internal roadmap apparently extends beyond that
date, but as always, those plans are subject to change.
一到8月，立刻改名，没有任何新的内容、任务、产品，先花不少钱设计名字，
商标，给每个人发T-shirt －－ 那些设计，商标什么的，肯定是8月之前就开始准备了

你这推测太牵强了 你怎不说那新招的Standford Phd 之前在Nokia做Meego 肯定上
Meego?
webOS 去年被砍后, 接下来的Open webOS 在HP变成一个low priority side project
做得有气无力的 母公司都不怎愿意投钱投人力了 Spinoff出来让别人投资 绝对更好

发帖数: 2407 | 17 别激动，我用palm很多年，我也希望webos好，不过现实是残酷的
让别人投资webos？谁投资？不会有人投资的。当初投资palm的一帮人赌了一把（投钱
，找Rubstein），结果亏了不少。现在这局势，好几家快倒的，hp前车之鉴，绝对不会
有人投资的。
至于说之前做meego肯定上meego，那就搞笑了，说过了那人是咨询出身，又不是搞技术
的，不会对meego有任何留恋。
事实上我相信android，ios，win之外还可能出来一个成功的系统，不过需要钱，需要
时间，需要人力投入，这些条件一般都不具备。

发帖数: 2407 | 18 为什么不会有人投资webos？
1.硬件方面，touchpad的火全靠价格，本身硬件没有特别优势。何况后来也不打算支持
，不打算自己做了。做硬件投入大风险大，hp自己不做，谁会投资来做硬件？
2.软件方面，现在选择很多，webos有优点，但都会被慢慢学走，本身缺点也不少－－
效率低，运行慢是最大问题，体系结构决定的。
最可惜的是palm软件，许多软件到现在android ios上根本没有能相提并论的替代品，
可是palm匆匆忙忙就把旧palm软件都扔了，人家做了模拟器也不让卖
前阵子我把palm TT, palm T3还有cradle一兜子提到staples recycle了，当初花了多
少钱多少时间在palm上，现在全扔了，难道不遗憾？
可惜现实就是如此。 |
