HP Drops The iPod

In a shock announcement HP have said they will no longer be selling a rebranded version of the iPod.

"I can confirm we have exited the relationship," Hewlett-Packard spokesman Ryan Donovan said. He could not immediately provide further details.

A spokeswoman stated that selling the iPod was no longer part of HP's digital media strategy. Current stock will be sold and no more orders will be made.

I can't help but think HP's "media strategy" involves them making there own MP3 player.
