HP plans to develop Smartphones, says Whitman

Saturday, September 15th, 2012 5:28:31 by

Hewlett-Packard CEO, Meg Whitman, has confirmed that HP is likely to turn to Smartphone market after presenting their valuable customers with the best computer machines and printers.

However, the technology giants that earned their names after offering best business machines, failed to purchase the Palm OS and delaying the launch of the tablets.

“We did take a detour into Smartphones and we’ve got to get it right this time. And so, my mantra to the team is: ‘Better right than faster than we should be there.’ So we’re working to make sure that when we do this, it will be
the right thing for Hewlett-Packard and we will be successful.”

“My view is we have to ultimately offer a smartphone because in many countries of the world that is your first computing device. You know, there will be countries around the world where people may never own a tablet, or a PC, or
a desktop. They will do everything on a smartphone. We’re a computing company. We have to take advantage of that form factor.” HP’s fourth chief executive in eight years was quoted as saying.

Apple and Samsung, currently the leaders in the market for Smartphones, will be sweating on the company’s CEO decision to go head to head with them in the market of mobile phone users.

HP’s jump in this market will arguably help the American company in getting better results in the stock market if they succeed in launching a user friendly and attractive model that meets user’s requirements.
