According to Reuters, HP has enlisted the help Bank of America Merrill Lynch to determine whether their financial interests will be best served by selling or keeping webOS. Sources are claiming that by selling webOS, HP would only be able to recoup a portion of the $1.2 billion that they paid to acquire Palm, suggesting that the sale on webOS would net HP a few hundred million, which we guess is better than nothing, especially since they’re not doing anything with it at the moment.
There have been tons of rumors in the past suggesting that HP had plans to sell off webOS, and various companies have been named in the past (although none of which are true or can be confirmed yet), such as Samsung, HTC, Amazon and even Nikon. What do you guys think? Should HP sell off webOS or should they give webOS another chance?
