Hewlett-Packard Plans September Release of Open-Source WebOS

Jan. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Hewlett-Packard Co. plans to release its WebOS mobile operating system as open-source software by September, relying on the same approach to licensing that Google Inc. uses with Android. The company, which gained WebOS in its $1.2 billion acquisition of Palm Inc. in 2010, said in December that it would turn the software into an open-source project, meaning outside programmers are free to tinker with the code and use it in their own smartphones, tablets and other devices. In addition to releasing the operating system in the coming months, Hewlett- Packard will introduce open-source software tools called Enyo 2.0 today to help developers write WebOS applications.

Hi All, I just downgraded an iPhone3G from iOS 4.2 to 3.1.3 and unlocked using blacksn0w and now the bugger is stuck on boot mode, tries booting for like 5 minutes and then fails and re-tries a zillion times (left it on the whole day yesterday until battery died). All googling just leads to dead ends and I need to pass this on to someone like yesterday - anyone out there had such an issue, and how did u resolve it? ./Ok3ch

http://www.techspot.com/news/47261-rims-team-of-be-bold-superheroes-embarra… After hearing there was a management overhaul for BB i was excited ...then they come up with cartoon characters that look like captain planet kids (google it) and i sit here thinking what are they exploring action figures as a source or revenue or what? they better license the OEM before the company is taken over by Walt Disney :) -- GG
