<p><em>"Say what you say about the boring interface, the closed ecosystem, and the limited utility of the hardware, Apple has a winner on their hands. Next up is the Honeycomb army from Android. This is where selection rules above all else and the differences across the lineup are immense. Trailing far behind is the BlackBerry from RIM, who in my opinion have been caught with their pants down. The crippled nature of the Playbook was a let down from the go, as well as only releasing a chubby 7? tablet. But RIM was smart and stole injected a lot of WebOS into their system design. Now it&rsquo;s HP&rsquo;s turn to bring their own platform to the party. How well does the TouchPad battle with the other tablets?"</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/lpt/auto/1311017907.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>The HP TouchPad has been out for a while, but that has not stopped people from providing their own opinion on the latest competitior to the venerable iPad.&nbsp; If the iPad was not the gold standard, the TouchPad might actually be regarded fairly well.&nbsp; The problem is that we have seen better and liked it.&nbsp; Maybe the TouchPad 2 will prove to be more compelling.</p>
