Shawn Blanc, on the HP TouchPad

In his extensive review:

As a tech writer it was great to be able to use and live with the TouchPad for a while. There are many things I appreciate about webOS, and I’m glad I was able to spend some time with a non-Apple device for once. But, alas, the TouchPad is far less likable than I expected it would be. As it is I would not recommend it to anyone I know — even my friends with webOS phones.

This is the most in-depth review I’ve seen of the TouchPad. It was a ton of fun to read.

It’s a real shame the TouchPad seems like somewhat of a misfire. I want webOS to succeed, and Apple needs a good competitor in this space.
