Dialed In 124: HP buys Palm Video

Video description: What just happened? We thought it was going to be a slow news day, but right before our podcast was about to begin HP and Palm dropped a bomb and announced they had entered into an agreement where HP would buy Palm for $1.2 billion. The partnership caught us completely by surprise, but it's also one that makes sense for both companies. We discuss the possibilities to come out of this merger and more on this week's episode of Dialed In.
