HP still considering webOS tablets

The Tech Report spotted an interview at TechCrunch in which HP CEO Meg Whitman and board member Marc Andreessen reveal that webOS tablets may still happen in 2013, but not in 2012. Seems like a weird move though.
In an interview with TechCrunch, HP CEO Meg Whitman and board member Marc Andreessen mentioned something that probably should have been in the original press release:

Andreessen says that because of the open source model, we’ll have a future with webOS-powered tablets and says HP will be one of those companies that will develop webOS tablets. Whitman says this may not happen in 2012, but will probably take place in 2013. She alluded to this a few weeks ago but it is certainly interesting that HP is going to be developing future hardware products on the WebOS operating system.
