Thank You HP & webOS Community

Now that was a long commute home! After taking a wrong turn though the hospital and rehab center last last Tuesday (07/05) I have finally made it home. The past 12 days have brought a variety of challenges to me and my family. We have been blessed with great friends and family to help us through these tough times, but there has been one other group that has come to our aid that was quit unexpected, the HP and webOS community. HP and the webOS community have shared their prayers, words of inspirations, and generosity.

When I arrived home I was greeted by more than just friends and family, but also by the HP and webOS community. After the webOS community heard about the accident and that my TouchPad had been damaged, less than 24 hours later they had come together to purchase me a new one.  When HP heard about the accident and about the generosity of the webOS community they decided to send every TouchPad accessory there is plus a new Veer to replace my Pre 2 which at the time was thought to be lost (was later recovered). All of these gifts were accompanied with personal notes of well wishes and inspiration from the community and the developer relations team.

Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation for all the support the HP and webOS community have shown me and my family. It has truly been amazing to see the community come together and show their support.  HP shows yet again that they truly do care about their developers large or small and the relationships they create and hold with them.

The road to 100% recovery will be a long one (2-3 months long) and its comforting to know there are so many great supporters behind me as I travel it.  It also is amazing motivation to continue my work with Syntactix building great apps for one of the top platforms and communities out there!
