Today we received this message on Facebook from OpenMobile...

A few weeks ago, we wrote to you letting you know about the approaching release of our groundbreaking software, ACL for webOS. We just wanted to follow-up and let you know that IT'S HERE! ACL for webOS is available for purchase at www.bit.ly/aclforwebos, which means you can run Android apps on your HP TouchPad TODAY!

For those of you who are unaware, our Application Compatibility Layer software, better known as ACL, enables non-Android devices to seamlessly run Android apps, giving you instant access to thousands of more apps on your HP TouchPad, including those that are most popular, such as Netflix, Twitter, Instagram, and Evernote, just to name a few. Upon installation and activation of ACL, your TouchPad becomes instantly loaded with the OpenMobile AppMall, your one-stop-shop for all of your favorite Android games and apps, all of which have been tested and approved, ensuring that they will work just like they're supposed to on your TouchPad.

No no no, WebOS's framework and NetCast's framework are very diferent.

So essentially 2 different app catalogs?

I wonder if old non webos TVs and new webos TVs access the same apps on the same catalogs?

LG Electronics is in talks with Fox TV, a major U.S. broadcaster, to buy the latter’s content for its recently-released first Web-based TV, which will run on the software platform it bought from Hewlett-Packard last year, an LG official said Tuesday.

“We are negotiating terms with Fox TV to put its content and other services on our WebOS TV,” the official said.

I think the ACL was abandoned, not sure what the status is.

Hello, welcome to the site!

Looks like LG is putting up a site for SDK access...http://connectsdk.com/comingsoon

 

"Connecting mobile devices to webOS TV"

 

 

 

 

Its up in the air right now until they get released. I would imagine only new tvs. This is not official word, since we are not LG, just a webos entusiast forum. I'm waiting as is everyone else!

This video was posted yesterday, LG`s head of TV software deveploment explains LG`s plans for webOS.

 

Here's a new story this week....looks like Qualcomm acquired webOS patents from HP. LG bought webOS and all the source code but licensed the patents from HP. I wonder what this means for LG now and what Qualcomm plans to do. LG uses Qualcomm processors in their phones...we can speculate!

LG's logo has been released at CES and is just slightly different as we see on their smart TV

 

Its interesting to see the change in ownership of webOS along with the logo changes:

 

Palm webOS

 

 

HP webOS

 

 

 

 

LG webOS

 

 

 

 

 

Also Open webOS (opensource)

Looks like LG is building a site where they will have developer info, according to their developers forum:

Can't wait for the US commercials!

New LG webOS TV commercial for the UK!

Yes it definately would. They may based on some of the review videos and interviews from CES that I've seen.

Here are two more:
