Looks like they got WebOS on the Nexus 7 for anybody who likes WebOS: http://www.webosnation.com/webos-ports-gets-open-webos-and-running-google-nexus-7-video

I searched my best but didn't find anything in here about it.

Looks interesting, maybe I'll try running it on multi boot. Thanks for the find.

Edit: darn I guess they aren't distributing it yet or I just couldn't find a link.

Touch-based mobile OS?
So it's gonna be like a custom ROM? Or what?

I don't think anything official has been said, so your guess is as good as ours.
We'll find out in 1 hour, though.

Just so you guys know you have to build your own image and then you can use the instructions on how to "install" it.

Hello!
I have not found the build WebOS for Nexus7 and made it according to instructions. Started normally
If someone wants to try - download (123mb). And do not forget the starting instructions.
(p.s. sorry for my english )
