Just my thoughts....
Anyone have tips?
Published on September 7, 2011 By RedneckDude In Mobile Tech

I just got an HP Touchpad. I was wondering if anyone else here has one, and if so, any tips or tricks?

Ebay, Tom. $230.00

 

Some guy there has a lot of 12 for sale.

If you check out my article you'll see HP will be selling more in October.

I hope someone actually figures out a way to install Android Honeycomb. In the mean time, how cool is it? Is it easy to use for movies and music? I would like to see what current apps there are for it.

Quoting DrJBHL, reply 5If you check out my article you'll see HP will be selling more in October.

If I understand correctly, even then, the quantity will be very limited. $99.00 is better than $230.00, but then $230.00 is better than $499.00.

Financially, for me, it was now or risk missing out altogether. I have been playing with eReaders and so called tablets too long. I really like this one.

 

I know a guy at a local Aaron's store, the manager, who claims he has android on his Touchpad.

I am happy with the performance of WebOS, for now, but I do wish there were more/better apps.

Nope, not here, just can't find the use for the smaller sized mobile stuff that keeps coming out.

I don't have an i-anything.

I had a HP scanner once.

It couldn't understand what XP was....so it died.

Yeah, I've had a few bad HP PCs. I still have 3 Compaq PCs, which are essentially HPs. I'll never buy another HP lappy.

I'll reserve judgement on the Touchpad, for now. I'll have to play with it a few days to see what I really think of it.

Not so....

Just a minor update:

HP TouchPad Now Supports Android

http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-20102677-93/hp-touchpad-screen-can-now-support-android/

 

So, even if WebOS totally fails, which it won't, there's an alternative OS for the TouchPad.

Sweet!!!    I can't get the Touchpad to work with my printer. Apparently, it only works with HP printers.  For now.  [e digicons]:'([/e]
