HP Touchpad

The HP Touchpad running WebOS is the first real competition I have seen for the iPad. The tablets won't be available until the summer (Wifi model first then 3G). The iPad2 will be out by then...

My reluctance for buying HP is that they are famous for making craptacular hardware.

If they started building hardware like my old HP engineering calculator, then I would be more inclined to buy one.
