No big surprise, but information on HP's pad/slat/iPad like device is coming out steadily now. First "leaked" and announced a few weeks back, we're calling the HP device hPad, until there's an official designation. Get it? hPad? You know? It's a play on iPad with an "h" for HP?
We do try to throw comedy in here, and then we just fall..... [ read more ] Apr 06
