Video description: In a sneak attack move that left everyone (including CNET's own Bonnie Cha) on Wednesday HP, not HTC, announced that it will buy Palm for $1.2 billion. Many industry pundits consider the partnership out of left field, few remember HP's early foray in the world of Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) starting with the Jornada handhelds that even found their way into the capable hands of Dennis Richards in the James Bond film "The World is Not Enough."
