Scored one today. It's the 32GB version...more than anything, bought it for the wife. I'm in queue for the Sony tablet once it is released later this fall.

Setting it up as we speak...Not bad. But, updating the webOS is a PIA...it doesn't want to complete!

That was the most entertaining thing I have seen today.

He called it a Ipad, noted one of the pluses is that it overclock BOTH cores, mentioned casually he is using his neighbors connection and is unsatisfied at the speed with which he can chase porn, the touch pad screen goes to black and you can see he isn't wearing a shirt.

Ok all...I am willing to trade my unboxed 16 GB Touchpad with the HP case for a honeycomb tablet. New or used. PM me if interested and we can discuss.

Yep. Never wanted to complete for me either. I ended up installing the latest version with webos doctor.
