D3Live: Google Buys Motorola & Future of HP

[Ryoga2K]

IBM already did years ago, the PC market has very low margins so they prefer to sell that wing to someone that actually wants to deal with support, marketing, etc for such margins, while they will focus in solutions for business and development of new technologies, it does make sense if you see it from that point of view.

[kazora1001]

hello the touchpad probably cost less than 100d to make

[HatedAlways]

They bought Motorola Mobility.

[kazora1001]

@HatedAlways what does motorola mobility handles/ manages?

[HatedAlways]

@kazora1001 It's the phone-making wing of Motorola.

[cadebonds]

I was a about to buy a hp computer

[Fay7666]

What will happen with the MotoKORE

[Fay7666]

Look in BN.com

[Benc1213]

Would you say I should keep WebOS on the touchpad? Is it better than having Android?

[QutaHunter]

Happy Birthday Austin!

[jtalexander100]

Google is not buying Motorola. They're just buying the mobile division of Motorola

[AtheismOwnsGod]

HP can say good bye to money. the hp pavilion desktop looks great but i'm not buying from the company that KILLED WebOs

[magicalgamezz766]

dont stop i look forward to this every week your awesome!

[TheSiban]

What's going on with the Tegra 3 chip :S still waiting on those quad core tablets...

[duncan33303]

@TheSiban Should be coming in the next month or two is what I've hard.

[spy4561]

Oh if we could find a way to boot Android on the TouchPad... :)

[duncan33303]

@spy4561 The guys behind Cyanogen are already working on it now. Wouldn't be surprised to see some version of Android running on the TouchPad fairly soon.

[AtheismOwnsGod]

@spy4561 Why would you want to take WebOs off the Touchpad? it OWNS

[duncan33303]

@PJMAN2952 Actually yeah, Angry Birds is on webOS. It's even free.

[spy4561]

I might try to pick up a TouchPad today?

[MrGamer799]

i cant stop looking at your awesome computer

[MrGamer799]

ONH NO PC'S R DYING!

[MrGamer799]

@MrGamer799 i mean OH NO PC'S R DYING!

[crypticlocker]

I have a HP laptop, i feel dissapointed.

[alphaandliarize]

You look like Curtis Paradis without eye glasses! :)

[vmariani212]

Pause at 5:20

[vmariani212]

You realize that PC's ARE dying. Right?

[vmariani212]

@vmariani212 ByBy DROID.

[duncan33303]

@vmariani212 Windows still has nearly 90% market share last I checked so no, I wouldn't exactly say PC's are dying.

[j0shjames]

Congrats on 50! 

[Intronetz]

Congrads on your 50th episode of D3Live. :D

[duncan33303]

@Intronetz Thanks!

[STRmw2]

Why would the tablets sell for more now? Was the price cut a mistake? Because otherwise why would someone buy it for $250 when they could get it for $100.

[duncan33303]

@STRmw2 No the price cut wasn't a mistake. They just wanted to get rid of them ASAP.

[STRmw2]

@duncan33303

i just checked amazon...

16gb £250 ><

[JoeoftheInternet]

D3Live FTW!!!

[ZeTutorials]

I don't want to talk about HP anymore, it makes me very upset. 

[SoulCraftTV]

Thumbs up if you were at the live stream :D

[MickDeRaad]

I think HP makes a big mistake by stopping webOS and the pc's.

[fatsojiggy007]

Do you know bulldozer pricing?

[duncan33303]

@fatsojiggy007 No I don't, sorry.

[rebell813]

since hp owns compaq do you think hp will just drop the compaq line completely

[mariomj71099]

@rebell813 they wont obviously

[duncan33303]

@rebell813 I imagine they will spin it off along with the rest of the PC division.

[brantmoore13]

Is it possible that hp is coming out with something else?

[duncan33303]

@brantmoore13 Not really. They have been pretty clear that they're done with webOS.

[brantmoore13]

@duncan33303 I mean killing webOS to come out with something new? they wouldnt spend a billion dollars to throw it all away in a couple months.

[abs0lute5]

cool video

[bobbybob3680]

Duncan, I just bought one for $100. do you think I will be able to resell it for like $250?

[duncan33303]

@bobbybob3680 Probably, that's what they're going for on eBay right now.

[No1mann]

@duncan33303 Awesome Show!

[Guccibear100]

I drive a Kia Soul!

[duncan33303]

@Guccibear100 Bet you wouldn't mind trading it for a Lamborghini huh?

[Guccibear100]

@duncan33303 Hmmm, as long as the insurance didnt sky rocket id do it in a heart beat hahaha.

[Mcode3996]

Has any of you guys see any satanist videos? What a bunch of idiots those people are.

[BlitzkriegTerror]

@Mcode3996 I believe you meant to say "have", rather than "has".

[Fay7666]

@sccrestr That would create a phenomenon like the first PS3's

[Fay7666]

Darn It, next d3live, I'll be there and not 50 mi. from an Internet source

[AppleAppsPodcast]

You lookin' fancy.

[salvationarmyfan13]

i was on blogtv when this was recorded, it was EXTREMELY fun

[duncan33303]

@salvationarmyfan13 Definitely!

[16jker]

wtf thats bad hp bad.

[Dielan8331]

hey Andrew it was great to be able to talking to you (throught typing on d3live) i watched todays for the first time and it was really entertaining

[teddzertell123]

nice hair!

[spinataler]

The First question about the companies all joining together would be defined as a monopoly and would go under the sherman anti trust laws formed back in the days of rockofeller and jp morgan.

[duncan33303]

@spinataler Yep! I went blank on the term.

[spinataler]

You should have really mentioned the fact and change the title because google DID NOT buy MOTOROLA! THEY BOUGHT MOTOROLA MOBILITY!

[duncan33303]

@spinataler You've got a point but the Mobility part is what most people think of Motorola for.

[sccerstr09]

HP should just keep the Touchpad at $100 and just stop marketing and stuff. It would sell like crazy. Today is a good example

[Freddan50]

You're awesome duncan!!

[luismacintosh]

50! Dang!

I got my touchpad today!

[emafat32]

gratz on 50

[JrabbProductionsRS]

@duncan3303 do you have your computer running on windows 7 and Mac OS X? Or do you have a separate mac computer?

[duncan33303]

@JrabbProductionsRS I don't own a Mac at the moment.

[netcvb]

I was the one that ask the apple, microsoft, etc. and the iPad 3 question, it feels awesome to have my questions read on one of these videos.

[duncan33303]

@netcvb Awesome, thanks for coming by and helping out!

[Flodian12345]

Is the touchpad still worth getting? After webOS pretty much dies... will there still be updates?

[FullCircleReviews]

@Flodian12345 probably not, but the homebrew/hacking community is definitely a great reason for getting one.

[JusIgnoreMe]

@Flodian12345 Your question sounds like " Will i still poop after i am dead?" -.-

[duncan33303]

@Flodian12345 I highly doubt it will get updates but that's why it's $100.

[luke5288]

yes under 300!

[Fay7666]

Happy 50th week d3live

[ModernAssassian]

I was in the Livestream FTW! Why do you have your desk so close to that wall isnt it anoyying?

[duncan33303]

@ModernAssassian That's the only way it fits while still leaving me room to set up my equipment around it.

[genio0417]
