Hewlett-Packard’s recent trademark filing might suggest the name for the upcoming WebOS Slate.

In the trademark filing, Hewlett-Packard will trademark the word ‘PALMPAD’ and categorizes it as being one of the following:

Computers, computer hardware, computer software, computer peripherals, portable computers, handheld and mobile computers, PDAs, electronic notepads, mobile digital electronic devices

There’s the iPad, WePad, EeePad, and probably many more…why not the PalmPad from HP?
