HP's Bradley Ready To Fight Everyone In Tablets
Walking into a bar and announcing your intention to fight everyone there could lead to an emergency room trip. But in the context of the tablet market, it may be an effective way for a newcomer to rally channel partners around a new mobile platform.
This week at the HP's Americas Partner Conference, Todd Bradley didn't mince words when sizing up the tablet competition. "We’re going to fight everybody. This is not an Apple and HP scenario," Bradley said at the event. Bradley also mentioned Samsung, Dell and Lenovo as tablet competitors that HP sees on its radar. "The list is long, but they should be more worried about how they're going to compete with HP," he said.
HP faces an uphill climb in the tablet space, but it's got big ambitions for WebOS. When the TouchPad arrives sometime this summer, we'll see if Bradley's bravado will translate into market success.
