HP Slate 500 gets official; $799

Actually, I read your post and can’t understand a damned thing you’re trying to say. Maybe use some punctuation and proper usage next time.

so you cant read either huh…..too bad just read the headline and figure it out dummy this morning.

Your punctuation and grammar is kinda all over the place. You know, those rules were implemented for a reason — if you don’t use them, nobody knows what the hell you’re saying.

then how come HP still is the #1 computer provider in the world? How come they boast of 30 billion dollars a Quarter? Stocks in the dumpster? there been in the plus for months now still at 43 dollars a share still higher then Dell their distance #2 compeitor im confused with your dumb knowlege? SO yes companys will be buying this, as a netbook and even most laptops dont compare to the specs and capabilitys this tablet can do. In fact neither can the current Ipad, along with every single spec is higher then the ipad, though Ill give you the ipads more fluent, but There are a dozen things this slate alone can do that the ipad cant. Wake up and look at facts before contending with me boy.

please..the specs are the same as s $300 netbook running windows 7 and it’s got a 4 hour battery instead of 10 that many have… blah blah blah

and it will still sell, and add to the number 1 computer maker in the world. Until you can tell me about a company that makes more money then HP (oh wait you cant their #1) then shut your mouth, you have no argument on a product thats better in every way then anything out there.

HP the future period

Find me a $300 netbook that has a touch screen and that support a wacom digitzer. Do you know how much is a Wacom Cintique. And that thing doesn’t even have a CPU.

Hmmm… Their printers maybe? Or perhaps their Cameras? HP sells many good products, their PC’s are not one of them. I have yet to see a HP laptop go its first year without warranty work.

As far as this being for “business”, I promise you, my department won’t be buying any. If anything, most businesses pay LESS for most of the products we buy (thanks to corporate discounts).

I could see this as maybe a $500-$600, not $800.

I agree…..this is just v1.0. Come CES, iPad will be runnin for them hills ….bring on the Windows 7 Touch Onslaught OEMs!!!

do you hold stock in HP i told you so.com? it sounds like you do and are hoping this tablet takes off, because even though they are number one now, if their first tablet tanks, it’ll be at least 3 years before people will even think of using HP tablets over their competition. And speaking of tanking, don’t get me started on Palm. If their tablet uses anything resembling WebOS, Prosumers can keep them, I’ll stick with my Ipad.

webos is stated by anaylist, and reviews globaly that its the best OS on the market so get started trick, you wont be saying much. No I dont hold any stock but you should get some and change your name from droiddrood to droidfool. You sound stupid HP is worldwide effective, not just statewide read the numbers. The only reason webos didnt take off (though they still sold 3 million devices not bad for a poor company) is because they didnt have the captial to market it dummy. With HP yes the #1 seller for years gets behind them its over. The Palm Pad running Webos at CES 2011 will make you eat that shit you called words we have base specs already with it running 2ghz and 2 gigs of ram, you must be stupid talking to me with dumb facts and just alot more of your dumb opinions. Android will fade too, and with this Apple lawsuit there will be only 3 OS left IOS, Webos,and WM7 now take that and eat it boy stay in your place under me.
lol

Dang, you need to calm down a little bit. You act like someone slapped your kid in the face. You can throw around as many statistics as you want, but in the end it doesn’t make you sound any more intelligent than anyone else who gives their opinion. When making you point, you sound less crazed if you leave the anger out of your arguments and stop calling everyone else dumb. It only turns those who would otherwise listen to what you have to say against you, no matter how many ‘lol’ comments you add at the end. So, I’ll remain out from under you and continue about my day knowing that my opinion (that is based purely on observation) will remain unchanged despite your anger.

Chillax and answer the question. No one cares HP sells more PCs. They probably sell more corded mice too. Congrats. What does this offer an “enterprise” user that can’t be satisfied with a laptop or netbook or iPad?
