HP had promised that it would release a number of webOS products (including a tablet) in 2011. It appears it is set to make good on that promise. It will hold an event on February 9th (giving the CES dust time to settle but ahead of MWC 2011) where it will make an “exciting webOS announcement.”
The tag line suggests we could hear about both a tablet (“Think big”) and smartphones (“Think small”).

Update: Apologies – I initially reported that this event would take place on January 9th rather than February 9th. I have now corrected the story.
