HP TouchPads May Be Dumped in Landfill


So what will HP do with all those unsold tablets? Either sell them off at "fire sale" prices, or bury them in a device "graveyard," maybe even next to Atari's E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.

Now that HP has made it publicly known that it's ditching webOS-based gadgets like tablets and smartphones, what's to become of TouchPad tablets stockpiled in retailer warehouses?One theory is that the company plans to dump them all in a landfill thanks to the American government.
