I actually don't mind WebOS sure its not as snappy as IOS or Android, but the card multi-tasking on the home screen is something that Apple and Google should look into developing or even buying the patent.

HP Status
I received my 16GB from HP today.

I tried calling HP for the price adjustment and the automated message said the following things:
1. All orders created before 4 AM Central Time, August 22 will be adjusted automatically
2. All orders before this time will get a confirmation within 24 - 72 hours
3. All orders placed after this time will be cancelled
4. Out of stock of all Touchpads

She said that the likely cutoff for the order time would be Saturday morning. Therefore, any order placed after this time will likely be canceled. As of now, she had received no instruction from the head office that subsequent orders will be placed on backorder; they will just be canceled

doesn't this contradict itself?

aug 22 is monday
orders were cancelled after saturday. saturday = 20th?

im confused! i ordered one on sunday morning but have yet to receive a secondary email stating whether or not my order has been shipped or cancelled.

now that it seems the HPpad fantasy is gone.. time to get a real device. I'm debating between the galaxy 10.1 and asus transformer .. opinions anyone?

edit: found a good review here http://www.androidauthority.com/asus...ab-10-1-15124/

Fo those with a TouchPad, getting Preware and overclocking to 1.5Ghz is a MUST.

Makes the thing go from Laggy to iPad 2-like speeds..

ShadowBun 08-23-2011 05:46 PM

oc to 1.7 is better
heck ppl even did to 2 w/o it dying

LiquidTurbo 08-23-2011 06:01 PM

How to get to 1.7? What's the name of the Kernel?

ShadowBun 08-23-2011 06:29 PM

I would choose transformer. More expandability. More connectivity options.

I just ordered, in case my Best Buy order falls through (still haven't received a shipping notification) :okay:

$20 shipping + $20 tax :fuuuuu:

Vansterdam 08-23-2011 09:26 PM

looks like im gonna have to sell my touchpad cases when they get here cause the touchpads never came :alone:

SkinnyPupp 08-23-2011 09:29 PM

Cases are stupid anyway, especially when the TouchPad is already so heavy. I'd get one of these instead.
