After the iPud, I mean iPad, I am seriously considering the tm2 now. I am not too sure on HP's Slate... they better release specs soon. But I am thinking that the tm2 is far thicker - but offers a physical keyboard which is just really useful.

Asus is getting better but it depends on model to model still, I'm certain. ]]>Jan 28th 2010 1:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/That's because it was running on Turions. This generation is running on low voltage core 2 duos as well as a less power hungry OS.

After all, its not like many laptops didn't have issues w/ Nvidia chips at the time of the TX2000's release, including many Macs (and no, I'm not just talking about the over-application of thermal paste that plagued Macs for a few years).]]>Jan 28th 2010 3:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 3:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 4:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/

Maybe they should just add the option, I'm sure that wouldnt be too hard?]]>Jan 28th 2010 2:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/
Pretty sure it's not. I've beenworking for a while wit the TX1000 series and it truly is one of the worst laptops ever built in terms of both software and hardware. This doesn't seem to improve in many areas at all, namely a worthless touchscreen, a GUI too small for fingers and a build quality like a tents. Oh, and if it truly doesn't suck, it'd be the first HP product ever with a touchscreen implementation that actually works. (Check out their horrible TouchSmart desktops for example which are truly dreadful.)]]>Jan 28th 2010 4:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 4:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/
I have a Touchsmart desktop. It's a great kitchen PC that records half of my TV shows so that I can watch them during dinner, sitting around, whenever. I like the touch screen, and it's very fun to access the web from it.

I can't wait to get the tm2! They supposedly improved the build quality 20x by copying some methods from their envy line. Capacitive Wacom touchsreen is nothing to sneeze at. I fail to see why you hate it so much.]]>Jan 28th 2010 5:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/
Actually they improved the touch screen significantly, the new tm2 uses a Wacom digitizer compared to the crappy N-Trig in the tx2000z.]]>Jan 28th 2010 7:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 1:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 1:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/Jan 28th 2010 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/hps-touchsmart-tm2-gets-exhaustively-unboxed-on-video/
