    Last I heard LG TVs run WebOS. In 2011 you could buy HP tablets running this. The OS traces its roots back to Palm Pilot PDAs.

      Oh, I’m aware of the origins of webos and palm. I still have an old palm pilot sitting around somewhere. One or both of the battery coils broke and I never got around to fixing it.

      As for the TVs. I’m fairly certain that while LG os is based on webos, they made some modifications to it and maintain it, somewhat.
