#3#5: The source is easy to find.
Does this mean that all apps' source is accessible, or just Palm namespaced applications?

PDK application are compiled C++, so you only have object code. Most of the apps HP ships on device are JS apps, so source is there. A developer can choose to only ship minified/obfuscated source code if they want, but there still has to be something for V8 to parse and execute.

#5Just tap on the “Just Type” search bar and enter “upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart” (the classic NES Konami code!); an icon appears that lets you toggle this mode on and off.
Wait, really? If that's not a joke, then it's kind of cool.

#8if only there was a good (and hopefully cheap) hardware device to go with webOS, it would definitely be cool to hack with. The Palm Pre, however, in my opinion did not function as a useful device, mostly because of the hardware (and lack of applications compared to iOS and android devices).

#9webOS sorely needs Galaxy S2 class hardware. HP should stop all else and get a slick device out like yesterday.

#10#7: You can try cutting edge stuff.
Yet you can't even do css background gradients. Real cutting edge.
