Just got that n64 emu, it looks dope, a little laggy and of course the controls suck (not really a fan of touchscreen w/games like that). Bluetooth support on this would fantastic.

did you install the update? Mine runs very smooth. Actually on it now.

Bad desion. This unfit software(android 2.3 cm7) but imagine when they open source Honeycomb and Ice cream Sandwich in the near future.
WebOs is good, but Android is fantastic.

watch video.

It’s not very often I get to write that it’s a good day to be an HP employee. But it’s also not everyday that HP employees are offered some of the last TouchPads.

The company is set to release a final batch of the $99/$149 HP TouchPads to employees starting September 28th at 9:00am PDT. This is per an email I received from an HP employee (embedded after the jump), which notes TouchPads are available on a first come, first serve basis and employees are only allowed to buy one TouchPad — which some will likely list on ebay where TouchPads are currently selling for over $200. The sun is setting on the TouchPad’s life and HP is likely ready to move forward, thoroughly burned by their venture into the land of the iPad.

This comes, as stated in the email, as HP is “clearing out inventories and winding down manufacturing operations.

HP employees gonna resell them as well. Just lemme have one.

32gb for $149.00 went live on officedepot for less than 5 minutes today. Got it in my cart and as I am about to checkout it says "Item 278394 is no longer available for purchase this time"

don't mind the delivery date, it changes everyday just to tease me. And occasionally HP will hold the money from my account for a little bit to trick me into thinking its finally coming and then release the hold a little while later.

i actually meant this dude on ebay

Haha! You really can't get mad at trollip though. Dude wanted them and stayed on top of the SD updates. Anyone, if they really wanted one or more, could have done the same. In my case, I just needed 4. I got them and got out...

guy is most likely a best buy employee (or a worker for a huge electronics store). a dude over on SD said some dude sold him a touchpad over craigslist, and he had the nerve to come over to his house in his best buy polo.

aww, you're still calling me by the nickname you gave me. how cute.

anyways, that 64GB white touchpad is ugly as hell, has anyone else seen it? dudes selling it on eBay for around $320+

^It's only fortunate that your name worked with it. Other than that, I wouldn't have been so "clever". Haha!

I actually really like the white one, but that's just because I have a preference for it. Looks better and doesn't show fingerprints as much in my opinion. However, I'm using the folio case so fingerprints on the back or color won't really matter...
