Re: "But if almost no-one has an HP tablet"
That's kind of the point, if HP were to make a decent tablet that can be used both at home and at work, users might be inclined to buy one rather than carrying around a work laptop and their personal tablet (especially if they get a discount).
As for Knox / other BYOD stuff, they work, but my point was to make it so much simpler so they company doesn't have to do it themselves.
Yes, they really need to get into telephony. Ultimately they should hope to be a 'one-stop-shop' for a company's technology. Make one call and everything IT is good and done. It'd be good for them, as you mentioned, from lock-in.
