Hi Wovens, Welcome to the Community. I too was shocked by HPs recent anouncements (mostly how they did it, not what they did... I figured that they would have licensed Web OS to a hardware manufacturer first before killing their own devices.).
That being said, I can confirm that there are still HP Devs checking into these forums as well as other members and the community is really great. HP has openly confirmed that WebOS is not dead (as hard to believe as that is) and for myself, I still love the phones and will continue to use the devices that I have for as long as they will work as I have found nothing comparable on the market to date (contact management, calendar synergy and multitasking are far more important to me than useless apps... I have a solid 10 apps I run all the time and they allow me to be extremely productive).
Sorry about the timing of your decision to buy in to the Web OS platform but these forums will continue to be an important source of information and communication. I also recommend following WebOSRoundup.com as well as Precentral.net These two sites provide tips and tricks for maximizing the use of our devices as well as providing the latest news (like Touchpad Fire sale prices).
My mouning time is almost over and I am living in the moment. I will continue with WebOS if it survives and will only look to changing if no amount paperclips and duct tape will hold my phone together any more and no new devices have been released.
