A pair of logs from developer Thomas Perraudin have shown two previously unknown webOS devices. One, nicknamed Nova Dartfish, has the same 1024x768 resolution as the TouchPad but has a fixed, non-sliding keyboard. It could be a TouchPad with a Bluetooth keyboard, but it also shows the Touchstone dock mode enabled and doesn't have a familiar codename.
The second has no name at all and has a 320x480 screen without any hardware keyboard. HP's device was clearly a webOS testbed as it was connected to AT&T, which only just got the smaller resolution Veer 4G, and was running the so far TouchPad-only webOS 3.0. Its resolution is too low to be the already photographed touch-only phone.
HP has already promised a wide variety of webOS hardware in coming months and has pointed to webOS booting on PCs. A possibility exists that Nova Dartfish is actually a PC test mule running the platform instead of Windows. Executives at the company haven't said for certain how many more webOS phones and tablets would be ready by the end of the year, although leaks have already mentioned the higher-end touch-only phone as well as the seven-inch Opal tablet.
