Both Amazon and B&N are said to be coming out with 10 inch tablets. That is where iPad's competition will come from, especially since we know both are willing to sell them at a very low price.

There was a "lack of demand" at $500, and then they dropped the price to $400 and the demand grew. Apparently the CEO came out and said that they wouldn't settle for anything less than #1 and when it didn't become the #1 seller, it was a disappointment. Then they axed it with all their WebOS devices.

They never even gave it a chance. Their CEO came from some corporate sales company and wanted to get rid of HP's home sales division. He got fired recently because of the fiasco he created.
