There’s a big shakeup at HP concerning webOS as former Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein will be stepping aside to allow HP’s Stephen DeWitt to drive the growth of webOS.

Jon Rubinstein tells Palm employees to ignore TouchPad reviews, compares webOS to Mac OS X
HP, who purchased Palm in April 2010 and then killed the brand, mind you that internally the folks who once worked at Palm still refer to themselves as Palm, recently launched their answer to Apple’s iPad: the TouchPad. Yes, the name is bland, but it got a lot of people excited because it was the…
