HP Slate To Run Palms WebOS?

webos-slate.jpgThe HP/Palm acquisition conference call is going on right now, but I wanted to point out an interesting juxtaposition on some of the slides they’re providing along with the call. On slides 5 and 9, they show three images:

Pixi, Pre, HP Slate.
Then again:
Pixi, Pre, HP Slate.
Get the picture? HP isn’t (yet) saying that their upcoming Slate tablet PC will run WebOS, but they’re implying that the two ideas go together like chocolate and peanut butter. 
The HP Slate, as far as we know right now, is a multi-touch tablet with a 1.6 Ghz Intel processor running Windows 7. But Windows 7 might not be the perfect OS for a small, touch-screen device. Could HP turn their ship fast enough to deliver a killer WebOS slate – and if they do, would you want one?
