HP needs to push the web angle even harder. If WebOS were the chromeOS of phone it would have something to really differentiate itself. To do that they have to go all-in on making the browser really kick ass. The biggest problem with the mobile web today is the browsers are not nearly as good as the desktop counterparts. If HP/Palm would make it a priority to have a javascript engine that comes close to desktop counterparts, to support all of the cutting edge html5 features, and continually iterate on that, I'd definitely strongly consider making a switch. They should drop native apps all together and instead suggest developers use WebGL and html5 (keep the App Catalog but make it just be for app review and discovery).
