I will be getting my nano this week but this won't get here until like two weeks from tomorrow. Eek
[Off-topic] monstermm:
Seems expensive to me, cool though.

I see two main issues.

- Going flat always pressing buttons to check the time.

- Having headphones tethered to your hand would be awkward.
[Off-topic] conantroutman:
I cant imagine having a "watch" that you'd need to charge......

With regards to Apple in general.

I want a Mac / MacBook solely for audio stuff. Pro audio software just runs better on macs.

Cant justify the cost though.... :(
[Off-topic] solarpolitiks:
I can see myself throwing it on the charger nightly not too bad.

As far as audio stuff goes, I get along pretty well on my PC. Linux has some nice choices as well

any help on this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gordec:
So I couldn't resist but to get a cheap Touchpad yesterday to play with. It actually has a very nice OS, but it's buggy every where.

First, the screen on this thing is subpar compare to the Gtab 10.1. It is like night and day. I expected at least Ipad quality since it was advertised as IPS display, but everything looked blurry. At 80% brightness is equivalent to about 30% on the Gtab.

Built quality is decent. Pretty clean with a piano, gloss finish.

Sound from the speaker is really good since it's got Dr. Dre's Beat's Audio branded speakers.

WebOS: I love the cards, and how the multitasking work. Swiping up to close an app is very intuitive. It was quite fun to use.

Web browser: for most sites, especially flash site, it works very well. Flash is on par with all the Honeycomb tablets I have used. However, I tried to go into my hospital's website to start a Citrix app, it would just keep refreshing and not load the page. I even updated to the latest 3.02. Obvious my clinic's Citrix page didn't load either. The problem here is that they advertised the Touchpad as compatible with Citrix.

Reading PDFs: the only app is Acrobat Reader. It doesn't render the files correctly, it's always blurry. Pinch zoom in/out don't work. Basically, if you used anything else, you would never use the Touchpad to read PDFs.

Bluetooth stack: using my Sennheiser MM550 with the Gtab's BT, music sounds flawless and the range is amazing. The Touchpad gives intermittent clicks just like my HTC Inspire in terms of BT audio.

I won't mention app store since it's not fair to even compare.

I think it all went wrong because the device didn't have good foundation. It didn't have a quality screen, and the WebOS was put out prematurely. There are things to like about it just the negatives seem to overwhelm my experience. It's sad that if it's $50 today, I would still pay $500 to use the Gtab 10.1. Obvious if you just do basic web browsing $100 is a killer deal for the Touchpad.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pokey9000:
$50 eh? Check your PMs.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] WR3NCH:
I never got to use the Touch Pad before they disappeared from Best Buy. I briefly checked it out when I picked up my Galaxy Tab. It's just amazing to me that HP put out this completely half baked product. Consumer products are what they do. By all accounts WebOS has great potential. You would think that HP would be able to capitalize on that foundation but it appears they had no intention of doing that (maybe from the beginning). I would say I was eagerly awaiting to see what HP would do with WebOS thinking it would one day be real competition. Now it's all but dead. Nice job, well played!

I thought about buying one for $100 to play with and figured someone would eventually get Android on it. But, whatever, I've got a Galaxy Tab. I'll save my money and buy Galaxy Tab accessories, etc. ;-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EvoXOhio:
Even though I own an ipad and a galaxy tab 10.1, I couldn't pass up the deal on the touchpad so I bought one. I agree a lot woth what the OP said. It has a lot of potential but it is half baked. The browser has lots of issues. The email client is very good. The multitasking is fantastic. The build quality is subpar - lots of flex and creaks in the back.

All in all i am glad I bought one, but its not worth a penny over $100.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cdf3:
Where is it available for $50?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gordec:
Sorry didn't mean to cause confusion. I'm just saying hypothetically if it were $50, I still wouldn't keep it. I got it for $100 fire sale price.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 4dthinker:
HP could/should have done a samsung and pulled the Touchpad after early reviews, then brought out a re-engineered/souped-up version that answered all those complaints. Price it at $399 for 16gb, then solicit (pay) iOS and Android devs to port their best apps over to it.

Just a thought.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] wpghtc:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stronggeek:
I agree!

Yep, me too. Mine should be here by thursday. I like my sammy, but for 150 and since I may be skipping the very next iteration of whatever comes out this ought to be fun to play around with for a bit. At the very least one of my kids will get it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cbpagent72:
Managed to get a $100.00 touchpad from Tigerdirect so wen it arrived this weekend, I put down my 32gb Galaxy Tab 10.1 and played around with it a bit. It seemeda bit slow at first but then I installed the latest OTA update and WOW the speed was awesome. I enabled developer mode (really really easy) by typing in the command in the search menu upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart and a button popped up and I was enabled for developing. In about 30 minsi had installed Preware (hacking type software) and turned off logging and applied some patches courtesy of the Touchpad developing geeks and again my Touchpad sped up. Finally I applied an overclock kernel (too easy, way to easy compared to android) and installed a program called Govnah and now I am running at a stable 1.5ghz, easy as pie.

I wanted my itunes on the device so I downloaded the HP music manager (interface very simular to Itunes) and in a few minutes my entire Itunes library was transfered to my device without any errors compared to the 30+ protected content errors I receive from Doubletwist everytime I sync.

I set up the free Box.net account and got a lifetime of 50 gigabytes for free ($20.00 per month value) and I downloaded the Box.net app on all of my Android devices. Just the Box.net account alone made the device worth the money.

There are some great app's on in the HP Market but in the amount of quantity they are seriously lacking compared to Android. I bought a touchstone charger, keyboard and case andi have to say that it is so cool putting the Touchpad on the touchstone in either landscape or portrait and it charges without plugging it in case or no case.

I have to say that I am very impessed with the Touchpad. I know I will get flamed for saying this but webOS is very nice and polished and really has some awesome features. I installed a bunch of apps and used it for amost 24hrs straight and I didn't experience any lagg or unresponsiveness. My Galaxy Tab 10.1 on the other hand get very laggy and slow after I have opened and closed and even task killed the apps. I credit the card swiping as the reason why webOS doesn't lag out like my Android devices do, when you swipe an app away It is really closed and not using memory or cpu power (take note Android). I believe webOS would be a great Linux based operating system for Anroid to purchase and intergrate the fit, finish and innovation into Android. I still love my Galaxy Tab but I am finding myself picking up the touchpad and using it more nowdays plus the Beats audio sounds awesome.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] trekei:
Debated if i should respond but, in the spirit of helping. Preader native reads epub and the mention of that app then says there is other ereaders besides kindle.. Honestly im surprised in this forum that the homebrew app store wouldnt have been the first thing to be looked into .

Some friends of mine and i have a box net folder full of Epub , if you want me to invite you so you can see for yourself , let me know.

Google music played great from the web browser, first thing i tried . There are apps to keep it "awake". I barely scratched the surface with this thing, Its not going to beat out much but some of these cons need a little due diligence.

I played Rio and The Boondocks thru kalemsoft which relies on your network , no stuttering . Im not even sure how it gets to be a Con when it adds video support. Touch Pad should get the Con for no Native video support, The Addon gets the Pro .

What CBP said, its extremely easy to get into developers mode and tweak it. Another friend stated he "jailbroke" it, I replied as easy as it was to do this , I woudln't say jailbreak or root. It really was too easy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] WR3NCH:
HP should have paid you all to advertise for them! Because the ads they did run didn't do anything to get me interested in the TouchPad. From everything I read of WebOS and the videos I have seen of it, it looks awesome. Too bad though. As some said previously, hopefully Google can intergrate more intuitive features into Android.

After having done this:

http://phonedog.com/2011/08/28/experencing-lag-on-your-new-touchpad-here-s-how-to-fix-it/

I can attest that this has dramatically improved the device. I am very happy with my $99 purchase and love the device (with all it's shortcomings) even though my primary device is still my GT10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
When the last palm employee left HP building and HP pull the plug off the servers that offer various services to the webOS devices, let's know how useful your TouchPad will be then. FWIK, a lot of functionalities, including emails, require this backend service, much like RIM's infrastructure, to work. Hence the name webOS.

And don't expect any miracles from Android to save the day. At best, you may get a Froyo or Gingerbread port. Forget about HoneyComb because it is not open source, and never will. Only the select few tablets oked by Google will have HC.

HP TouchPad Demonstrated Running Android

http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/239069/hp_touchpad_demonstrated_running_android.html
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] burhanistan:
Heh. More like crawling on the floor with its legs crushed rather than running.

Anyway, any Honeycomb ports to the Touchpad will be buggy. If they get CM7 going on it then maybe that might be good. But if you're sitting on a Touchpad it might be best to wait for Ice Cream Sandwich. I would guess that will be the ROM to flash. If you already have a native Honeycomb tablet like the Galaxy, then enjoy the novelty of WebOS. We use ours as a kitchen table browser.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cbpagent72:
Wow, I cannot believe how much you really hate the Touchpad and you probably have never used it. I own both a GT 10.1 and two android phones and now a webOS device and I have to admit I like it and I am not looking for an Android port for the Touchpad. I will probably stick with webOS and still use my GT 10.1. Just in case you have been asleep for the past week, HP stated they will continue to develope webOS and possibly license it to other manufactures. They are just deciding to stop producing the webOS hardware and stop manufacturing personal PC computers. The announcement was made for both at the same time so it was not just a webOS thing.

It is sort of funny that the biggest critics of the Touchpad don't own them or have not spent any time getting used to the device. The GT 10.1 is a nice thin pretty tablet but it is pretty laggy sometimes and has it's own issues and the Touchpad isn't exempt but after using both I really wish webOS had more development and just as many app's.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
I played with it in BestBuy when I went look for GT. It takes forever to load any app. That's my experience with it.

I don't hate webOS. But that is history.

I guess you never worked in a big corp environment. When they cut a product, entire team will be gone. Unless you trust the HP managers to write webOS code, any webOS developers in HP that have half a brain will already be looking for a new job. Who's going to maintain the webOS?

It's gone and it is history (unless Samsung picks it up as rumor indicates but that will be going to be the buggiest webOS release ever).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
You can't port Honetcomb because it is not open source like Android. Google owns the source code and won't let anybody else have it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
Yet another complaint thread... Wait... this isn't even about the GT10! Why is this here?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gordec:
It's to demonstrate Gtab 10.1's superiority.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cbpagent72:
I have both and I cannot say the GT 10.1 is superior except in available app's, screen brightness and size. After you spend 30 minutes tweaking the Touchpad you have a less laggy device than the GT 10.1 and in some respects a nicer OS. But then again you don't own a Touchpad you just wanted to slam it to feel better about your $600.00 GT 10.1, I get it I spent $600.00 on my 32gb GT 10.1 and have buyers remorse too, I was caught up in the how thin it was frenzy.

Best buy is just lucky this Touchpad sold for $99.00 after my 14 days was up. The Tegra 2 processor feels slower than my humingbird processor on my Epic 4G and it produces less FPS on the benchmarks than my hummingbird CPU and SGX 540 GPU and the Touchpad (stable overclocked 1.5Ghz dual core and an Adreno 220 GPU that eats the Tegra 2 and SGX 545 from the iPad for lunch) feels faster than both of them.

Keep patting your back and tell yourself that you made a good purchase and shouldn't have waited for the quad core tablets to be released. Tell yourself that a nice $99.00 tablet with a different OS (I know it is scary to try something new) wouldn't be fun to play around with and hold you over for those quad core's. It is okay to have other OS and devices out there infact it is better because I forces Google and the manufactures to produce a better product.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Hippotastic:
agreed

I have both now, got the hp for the misses. After tweaking the hp, i now would rather have webos on my samsung and keep picking the hp up. The tab whilst a beautiful bit of kit to look at, feels slow and clunky with honeycomb on it. I was very happy until the hp started flying, and if that unit came out the box working like that i would have chose it in the shop.

I think HP have been very clever dumping over one million of these units in the market with their fire sale. Probably cheaper than prolonged advertising, and a whole bunch of people introduced to webos and its potential. And after tweaking it, i am inclined to think it was worth the original asking price if it was post tweak performance and lets hope that people start working on the apps now there are so many units out there now.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] burhanistan:
I saw something similar in a CNet writeup, and I gotta say that's a real stretch. HP's new CEO simply wanted out of consumer electronics. The wild sales of these things is a definite fluke, and there's no way in heck that HP will make enough on WebOS app sales to even cover the losses in unit cost, let alone anything approaching a profit.

Amazon may have some potential with a cheap tablet and then making up the difference with app/movie/music/book sales, but HP doesn't have a chance. This was an outlier situation.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
If would be a wise move for HP if they started with $99/$149 price point at the very begining. Why? HP was in a unique position that owns both the hardware and software platform like Apple is. They can sell hardware at loss to flood the market and make money off the app market. That's essentially why Apple is so successful in this tablet market (by selling iPad at a loss (at the begining) or barely make profit). Apps, paid or free, make tons of money for Apple. It's the same business model as console games.

Right now, HP just desperately wants to get out without get burned too much.

On the other hand, Android tablet makers are all struggling because they only make money from hardware sale while Google gets the profit from app market. This makes hardware manufacturers virtually impossible to undercut Apple with price. If Apple wants to, they can easily cut iPad price to $199 or even $99 and watch all these Android tablets die quickly.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] burhanistan:
The thing is, they would need to sell hundreds of dollars in apps to every customer to even make a tiny profit. There's just no way their model supported that. It's easy to say what they should have done. But the fact is that Apple makes buckets of money on iPads because it makes a profit on each unit.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
Just like game consoles, it takes persistence and patience. Microsoft lost billions and billions on first couple years of Xbox business.

If they can sell large enough quantities of TouchPad, the cost will go down and they can make a tiny profit as well.

It's the only way for HP to even have a chance to succeed. Their current model isn't going anywhere and that's why they want to get out.

They blew it. There isn't even any ad supported free app model from HP/Palm. There is no chance for them to make any money out of app market either.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Hippotastic:
"Right now, HP just desperately wants to get out without get burned too much."

hmm might be so. But why not take note of the last two week and adapt?

HP have stated that they are gonig to continue to develop Webos. Very good if it is on a platform somewhere. Who is going to put it in their hardware as it is? HP thats who should be. They have just created a sizable base, build more, keep feeding the market whilst people are looking to buy, and give Webos a platform to work from.

As said earlier, they own the hardware and software, and were the only real danger to Apple if they could only organise themselves properly. Get enough units out there, produce more at cost, encourage the app developers onboard, and give it time. I think Android only gets the traction it does as a anti to Apple, shame this three way fight is off before it really got started.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
Unfortunately, the guy who wants to go that way is ousted by the board. The new CEO has no idea how to handle hardware business. Hence the 180 degree turn to slash all hardware manufacturing including PCs, phones and tablets.
