Wow look at this listing
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-TouchPad-...-/230664585087
One is going for $1300 with 36 bids. People are crazy man. If any of you managedto get one I will put Android on it for you and we can split the crazy profits :)

Edit
Aparently its a unique Qualcomm device and will get the owner a $1500 bounty for some reason...

I don't understand that either. Why not just buy.......an Android tablet!

It reminds me of the clamour to get N64 games to run on the N900. Such a painstaking process and I wonder why people go to such trouble.

Shame cant use it on the go as it does not recognise n900 ad-hoc network:(

Yeah free online storage is always nice :D

There are already topics on the webos forums where the community are working on a patch for tethering. It is not just the n900 that the pad will not find.

That looks like the PCWorld website to me, but no trace of the HP Touchpad when I did a search on that site.

True, tried with Nokia E7 also,it couldn't see it. HTC desire worked like a charm .
