I'm typing on my new touchpad! I got it on Aug. 20th for only $149! It took a while to get it but HP came through. I really like it so far! I'm learning how to type on it.

Deneb, is a touchpad like what is called a slate? Thin and smaller than a laptop?
Have fun :-)

Have you found any cool apps for it yet? Can you use it like your kindle?

Oooh, Deneb, you have a kindle, too?
I think about it because I get tired lugging my books around. I read more than one at a time. A lot more than one. But I am sentimental about paper. Hmmmmm.

The touchpad is a tablet pc basically, kind of like the iPad but not as popular. There's no 3G on the touchpad though, so no surfing the web without wireless.
There are more apps for it than I had thought! I downloaded some free ones. Angry Birds is free on the touchpad and so far I love the game! It's so easy to just whip out my touchpad and play whenever I'm waiting or doing nothing. I'm not letting myself go to the next level until I get 3 stars lol.
I bought this learn to type app for 99 cents. I'm hoping to greatly increase my finger typing speed.
This touchpad really is a steal at only $149!
Now I want mobile internet though lol. Not sure if I can justify spending the money on a portable wireless signal.
I'm typing this on my touchpad now! Yay! I think I'm getting faster!

I love my touchpad! With the MiFi I can surf the web anywhere on it! It's great for bus rides.

Oh MiFi is WiFi lol. It's just portable. You can take it anywhere with a cell phone signal. It means I can surf the web on the bus! It's just a fancy name for it I guess.
