I have the opposite reaction, I love Android 4.0 on my Touchpad, while I very much hate using WebOS. In particular I don't like the cards, I find them too gimmicky and I always end up missing my home screens & my widgets and the speed and flexibility of Android.
Here is a quick video I made yesterday of the latest Android build for the Touchpad http://youtu.be/qqn8etizQqY http://youtu.be/qqn8etizQqY
- downx3 15y agoEnjoyed your video. Would be great to get hold of one of those Touchpads...
- joenathan 15y agoThanks. You can catch them(16GB) on eBay for around $220 used in good shape or around $250 new, in my opinion for the price, this is the best Android tablet at the moment, the next best thing is probably the Asus Transformer Prime @ about $550.
- downx3 15y agoSorry to ask, but why did HP stop producing these? Are they still sold new in other countries?
- joenathan 15y agoNo, they aren't sold new anywhere. HP stopped producing the Touchpad about 3 months after it was released due to extremely poor sales. Why did it flop? I think it's because of a few things, first a very late entry to the market, and they wanted $499 for a 16GB and $599 for a 32GB. They were insane to charge iPad prices for the Touchpad especially when coming from the inferior position of very small app catalog, and an unknown, buggy OS.
- downx3 15y agoAha, cheers.
- Yhippa 15y agoAwesome video! I might have to give that a shot. It looks much more responsive than Gingerbread on my Galaxy Tab 10.1.
