Will HP's TouchPad truly be "better than number one"? That's what HP European head Eric Cador says, following a press conference in Cannes.
Announced last February, the TouchPad uses Palm's WebOS, the last entry in the tablet wars dominated by Apple and Google.
Building up to the device's eventual launch this year, HP also announces its flagship UK apps partners-- Last.fm, Sky and the Guardian, all of whom will have Touchpad apps on launch (alongside "thousands" others).
HP hopes its experience in the PC sector will prove key to its tablet success-- success analysts are somewhat uncertain about. We'll see about that success once the TouchPad actually starts hitting the market.
