The Verge has just posted an excellent interview with Jon Rubinstein following his exit from HP. Personally, I always thought he was underrated throughout recent years.

We just had a chance to speak to departing HP / webOS exec Jon Rubinstein about his time at Palm and HP, and what he plans to do down the road. Jon was already in Mexico taking what seems to be a much needed break from the mad dash that’s been his life for the last four years or so. We touch on a wide range of topics, from Jon’s thoughts on an open source webOS, his experience with four different CEOs, and his plans for the future (hint, he’s not retiring). It’s a pretty candid interview, so read on for the whole story.
