Apotheker wants to make his stupid plan of turning HP into a software company look brilliant. It's not. Building tablets is more profitable than licensing WebOS will ever be. Who'll want it when Android has far more apps available and a very low licensing cost? Even if they manage to extract $12 per device sold, they will have to sell 100 million of them to recover Palm's acquisition cost alone. This is lunacy. I love WebOS, but this is a very bad plan.
