HP slate device could ship this October

If you were looking forward to the HP slate device that is supposedly powered by Windows 7 (although others say it could run on webOS due to their recent acquisition of Palm), then you will be disappointed to know that it might ship as late as October, according to HP’s Taiwan PC group VP Monty Wong. October is a good 4 months away from the original June date, so if you aren’t the patient type, we’re pretty sure that you can always pick and choose from a range of tablets out there in the market.
