HP's WebOS tablet gets leaked, promises more to come

Here's is Palm's (now HP's) 9-inch Topaz WebOS tablet as it was leaked by Engadget. The device looks sleek and curvy with some of the styling cues taken from the Palm Pre. It's great to see WebOS on a larger screen, we're just wondering if it will be running blown-up Palm Pre apps or if there will be tablet-specific applications. HP played this leak cool and even teased a "you ain't seen nothing yet," hint at the revelations it may have during its February 9, event. We can't wait.
