He speaks the truth, if a port to android does surface (and is very likely) its not going to be without its problems.
In isolation the HP is a good deal but theres a fair amount of impulse buying going on, some sore heads and buyers remorse are inevitable. Havign said that i still want one

For €99, I dont care if its got "zero future support" or not, but thats not true. This sale around the world is going to create an underground community, and I expect an underground app store to be created for apps made by the public. And then theres touchdroid or whatever its called. Then when people figure out how to hack it, it will open a world of possibilities for the tablet.listermint wrote: »Why would you hope thats true, Amazon have had them up at crazy money all day long.

Obviously I hope its true, as I want a touchpad. Isn't that the point of this thread 0 -

99Euro is a bargain, will you read my posts. Im talking about people going crazy and willing to spend 200 plus and hoping amazon who only dropped their prices on 16gb at midnight get more.....
I hope other retailers get more that have a reasonable consistent price.

I got one yesterday.
You can pike, not that I condone it, all the apps on the market. This gives you some decent games, a decent google reader app, a video player that plays multiformat and supports streaming from a server desktop app (think Air Video). It surfs the web, shows flash content, plays music mp3 and lossless.
In short it does everything an iPad or Android tablet does pretty much just as well, it only falls down on the paucity of the App market, though it does cover off must of the bases for the core apps you would like - ereader, kindle, rss etc etc
I also have an iPad, but I am very impressed with this Touchpad, and for 99 euro you will be very happy indeed even if it never gets an update or an Android port.0 -
