Shawn Blanc’s TouchPad Review

July 6th, 2011

Shawn Blanc’s epic review of the HP TouchPad:

After nearly a week with the new HP TouchPad and webOS 3.0 my overall impression is that the TouchPad is less than the sum of its parts. There is nothing the TouchPad does that the iPad cannot except play Flash video (sometimes). I could not find one compelling feature or function that was significant or compelling enough to take the TouchPad seriously compared to the iPad.

Fantastic review. It’s unfortunate, though, that the TouchPad just isn’t there yet. The iPad is in its own class right now.
