Former Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein on Sale to HP: ‘Talk About a Waste’

12th June 2013

Read it.

Now that he’s exited HP, former Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein has opened up a bit about his thoughts on how and why webOS failed. In an interview with Fierce Wireless, Rubinstein said that if he had it to do over again, he wouldn’t have sold to HP, “Talk about a waste. … If we had known they were just going to shut it down and never really give it a chance to flourish, what would have been the point of selling the company?”

Ummm … cash out while it was still worth something, rather than ride it into the ground? That’s just a guess, you understand….
