People might decide to wait for HTC Hero, instead of buying myTouch now.

We won’t see it for another year. But, in looking at a mobile tablet profile, Google probably came to the conclusion that a full, or more accurately already minimized, OS wasn’t necessary. The long term perspective is probably to acknowledge that Google’s strength with Android is not applications but the browser. Why carry all of the baggage? I vote for a merging down the road.

Palm should be considering a tablet like device based on the WebOS. It makes sense. One could say that the WebOS is Chrome before Chrome. I have yet to really look at the SDK, and have no understanding if applications can retain embedded content, but if they enable such features, the WebOS could be well situated.

A browser as an OS is a truly important technology, and should have evolved long ago. My question is, with the fragmenting of the mobile OS space, who wins? Apple in my opinion wins in the short term. The web in the long term.

If they find that Chrome OS is doing better in the embedded/mobile space and they can perhaps offer a Palm WebOS sort of interface, then there’s no reason for them to prevent any cannibalization in the Android space.
