Basically HP wasted a whole lot of money.

They blew a shit ton of money developing the Touchpad, etc and then because they didn't want to spend that that last 10% on marketing (probably just to get started...), they shut the whole thing down...which started the downward spiral. HP has now dumped a Saudi prince-worth of money down the toilet and will probably continue to do so unless they can put out something world-breaking soon...or at least announce something that people can get excited about.

I don't know why they bothered in the first place. They never had a chance in hell against the iPad or Android with this crap.
