HP Touch Pad Still Popular ... With HP Employees

Posted by timothy on from the they-were-there-when-it-happened dept.

Earl The Squirrel joins the army of Slashdot submitters, with a story that dampens my hopes to get one of the last (cheap) HP Touch Pads. He writes: "Today HP made available to their employees (via their EPP store) one last batch of HP Touch Pads. The response has been so overwhelming that if you go to the HP store right now, you'll get the 'Please try again later' page. HP employees have 'slashdotted' their own store."

  1. I've used a fair variety of mobile OSes now... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Played with iOS and Android more than a little. The winner for best interface goes to WebOS, by a landslide. I didn't expect to like my Touchpad this much, but it's just leaps and bounds ahead of my Android and iOS stuff...

    Damnit, HP. Why must everything you touch turn to crap?

  2. BeOS part two? by jtseng · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It seems like webOS is going to die an undeserved death. It was conceived by a company too small to survive and came late into the game, and it will be killed by a company too stupid to know what it has and what to do with it.
