While downloading WebOS Doctor I decided to delete my apps and settings but not do a full erase
It restarted, I logged into my Palm account, it downloaded all the HP apps I previously had and I put in my passwords for synched accounts and it reconfigured the email, facebook, etc accounts
everything works, i just gotta redownload the Preware apps 9/29/2011 4:54:53 PM |

It's built-in. Just press Power+CenterButton ... You should see a sort of flashbulb effect and shutter sound to indicate a screenshot. Find them in your Photos app. 10/2/2011 12:47:58 PM |

I can assume that once they have Android on the TouchPad (well..CyanogenMod) that it will be able to play Netflix right? 10/4/2011 2:21:40 PM |

IS250tim All American 943 Posts user info edit post |
The Netflix thing is a tough thing actually. Depending on how good the build is and what it's derived from it might work, but might not. I think it'll come down to tricking the Netflix app that it's a different device, as that was the only way to get it to work on my Nook Color when I finally got it to do so. I hope it does, but I don't know if it'll be right away that it does work. 10/4/2011 6:39:15 PM |

http://www.precentral.net/android-touchpad-different-approach-getting-android-and-running
Quote : | "We've seen plenty of advancements with getting Android up and running on the TouchPad but now a new mthod has popped up for people to try out. It's dubbed as a test for now, so don't expect it to be a flawless execution as demonstrated in the video, but that's ok. You can download and install the test IPK file to your TouchPad and essentially you have Android up and somewhat running within a card -- just a like a real app would.
While we're not positive on just how this is working, it appears as though it may either be running in a VM or a variant of the Android SDK emulator, the slowness is what gives more weight to it being an emulator. No, it's not the best or fastest method of doing such things but the potential is there for greater things if some of the bugs are recognized and worked out." |

trying to decide what if I should open one 10/5/2011 2:48:06 PM |
catalyst All American 8704 Posts user info edit post |
so i opened one up and am very impressed....webOS is very slick (after disabling logging), speakers are awesome, and the display is crisp and even (even more than my iPad 2).
HP built a great product, surprisingly...I guess the price point was the only major issue. 10/5/2011 7:29:16 PM |

Quote : | "Best Buy: Whoops! HTC Flyer Not Supposed To Be $99, SKU Change Gone Bad
Did Best Buy flip the $99 switch too early on the HTC Flyer? According to a memo that is flying out to associates now, that is most certainly the case. It appears has if the wrong SKU was entered for the device and should still be at $299 for the time being.
The question now is, “Will they honor all of those orders at $99?” No word yet, but you will want to cancel the trip you just planned to your local Best Buy. Or at least call ahead to see if they will honor that price.
Update: Still no word on if online orders are being honored, but we know that they are definitely turning folks away at stores. Do not make the drive to your local Best Buy today." |

^ What hotel are you at that doesn't have wifi, I thought all did? Plus, being a frequent traveler, your wifi-tether will probably give better speeds than 90% of hotels regardless of amount of service. I use mine all the time when traveling otherwise it's too frustrating. 10/8/2011 9:26:10 AM |

got mines today. If the ui were as fluid as an iPad, I might like it more.
its better than android I think though. 10/18/2011 12:56:44 AM |
BobbyDigital Thots and Prayers 41777 Posts user info edit post |
the CPU is actually underclocked, you can 'overclock' it to spec for the CPU, and it becomes much more fluid. Things were a bit "choppy" for me until i did that as well.
Or do you mean the overall look and feel?
I think it's almost as good as ios, just wish it had more commercial apps like Netflix, etc. 10/18/2011 9:24:29 AM |

I think the scrolling animation is smoother on IOS which is good because to switch between "apps" you have to do a lot of navigating. I use a touchpad and ipad more often then I should . 10/18/2011 9:50:23 AM |

Seems to be pretty snappy even without any patches. You can now supposedly pair the Touchpad with non-webOS devices and make/receive calls and texts. Was able to receive a call fine but got an error after an outgoing call connected. 10/18/2011 1:14:33 PM |
