Did you guys hear that you are able to get a full refund or get the difference of what you paid from HP!?!?!? Great news!!!

That's why when I'm an early adopter for any tech, I would always buy from Costco. They give you a 90 day return policy.Otherwise, I would wait a couple months after release to see how the product actually does if I don't have that nice return policy.I got my Galaxy Tab 10.1 through Costco and I am thinking of returning it in October as I don't really have a need for the tablet.

Why complain? Just sell it or return. Most people got money refunded & I even got a $50 code to buy apps from HP. Along with my $486 refund I practically got my 32gb Touchpad free & I think its the best purchase I ever made! Its actually a really great tablet & I hope HP does make the 7" touchpads & keep WebOS alive.They wont have to worry about customers like you complaining since you wont buy from them anymore.Buying new products is always a risk. .....and HP did great with the refunds & free apps gifts. You should just stick to your 3rd Gen iPads. Nice & Safe :-) Why complain? Just sell it or return. Most people got money refunded & I even got a $50 code to buy apps from HP.

I asked this early on and was told I could for about $100 but it that it would void the warranty.This was from a 1st level HP tech. Don't know how valid it is. I've adapted pretty well and for $5 you might try stardock.com/products/start8 for a more familiar interface if you don't use or like touch screen and use "Desk Top" option.

I just returned a Duo. I would advise anyone to avoid this product. I spent TWO hours on the phone with tech support. Hardware saw no problems. Software concluded that Windows 7 needs 3gb memory and I needed to add memory. They also wanted me to buy a software support contract so they could restore the device to factory settings. I went back to the returns dept and was offered a $50 discount if I kept the device. I asked instead for them to send the memory upgrade I needed. The response --- it is not upgradeable. I actually had to eat a $67 restock fee to get rid of this paperweight. btw I had the audio doc package. It has an internet port and card reader- the duo itself just has usb. I just returned a Duo.

I'm sorry, I don't know what that is ... but if you find out, and you end up deciding on this laptop ... I am thinking about selling mine. It's awesome, but I am disabled and have a very hard time lifting it and working with the mouse and external cd dvc drive i got for it. Mostly lifting it, though. I want another hp envy that is smaller (although the big screen is nice!) I've used it a handful of times. Of course I would sell it at a discount, and if I sell it on ebay (I have 100% positive reviews), you could get a square trade warranty for it. Let me know. And if you telp me what 10 point multi-touch is, maybe I can actually answer your question. Thanks.

I haven't used this device since I switched to Windows 8 and the device didn't support that platform. I tried to contact for updates but gave up. Probably has the updates now. Thanks for reminding me. I will pull this out and see.

I have been researching this and even coming from the HP Forum help section, there seems to be no fix for this. It came to a dead end of confused, tired, and impatient users who demand an answer but yet to have receive one. The best they could come up with is revert to the previous windows which I wouldnt do just for a photo printer. I would just utilize the card slots. Sorry and I hope I helped a little if any at all.

As of today, I would not have given this tablet such a good review. My nephews tablet is frozen/locked and it won't do anything at all anymore. Also, I've noticed that unless the charger is held in a certain position, the tablet will not charge properly. I've decided to spend more money on a nice one for my son as a gift for Christmas this year rather than keep trying to get this one charged and working properly. Very unsatisfied with these tablets now!!! Good luck getting your app to work and I sincerely hope your tablet works well, it's not a bad tablet for the price but you definitely get what you pay for!!

good morning .. a target pleasure! my name is jhonnger. Look at the table is a good brand and is quick especially for systems like office, adobe, and surfing the internet. bad but mine came from usa.

Gina: I got this for my wife. She loves it, B U T we were unable to upgrade to 8.1. We went through all the updates for Windows 8, then it asked and still asks to update to 8.1. Unfortunately when we updated to 8.1 it took over 4 hours to download the files, then after they were installed and the machine re-started the radio in the tablet for the Wi-Fi would not work (no Wi-Fi connection), soooo I backed it back to version 8 and the radio worked for Wi-Fi. I did get the extended warranty so I plan on filing a claim and send it back to asus. Are you having the same experience?

I would not buy a computer from this site or their affiliates again. I like the machine itself.But mine had a processing problem and I bought a new one but I got a used and all messed up one. They refused to take it back! Do you believe that! Shame on them! Yes I do agree with you there are not enough ports either. You may have to get the portable ports. I hope someone has a better answer as to how you can put more ports in. Sincerely, Ripped Off!

I have taken a wait see attitude to upgrading to 8, HP website does not as yet have drivers for touch screenwin 8 yet, hoping they will release them prior to the upgrade expiring in january , HP say's touch screen will not work, an canvas, etc, in windows 8 as no drivers have been written as yet.

Seems a ridiculously high price for the dock and keyboard not be be included, if it was I would have bought it but the current spec says optional extra which means who knows how much more for the keyboard and dock....how disappointing....can't even find any link for the keyboard and dock at the moment to find out how much more they want for those.Also, am bemused as to the product description stating it has full pc capabilities offering all the features of a laptop - if that was the case then the dock and keyboard need to be included so it is a package otherwise it becomes nothing more than a higher spec tablet because the keyboard is only an optional extra!!!

HEY FRANK:Dont think you are crazy. Adobe pulled its support for Amazon Unbox videos and the like. So, you simply wont be able to play your videos over your Asus until Amazon finds a way to patch or come up with a ew system of allowing people like you and I to watch the videos we have purchased. It licks balls because if you cant watch movies over it, whats the point, right? I have been assured that Amazon is working on this and will have a fix sooner than later. Until then, I either just watch stuff on Hulu or Youtube or, watch the stuff you have on Amazon at home over your Toshiba like I do. HEY FRANK:Dont think you are crazy.

Just ordered mine today (6/15), sure wish there was SOME ETA as my old HP laptop is on the fritz. I can't believe the deal on this thing, almost $1000.00 off the HP price. I wonder if the price has something to do with the lack of ETA? Anyways, here's to hoping there will be some ETA soon. PS: I did call Amazon before I ordered, they had no ETA =(

Did you see the article showing the component cost on a chromebook is over $320? did you really expect them to sell something like this at a loss? when they can't put horrific bloatware and get kickbacks from microsoft?

I had the same issue and what I was told was that Windows 7 was not really built to be touch screen. I used the keyboard doc before my tablet became a bookmark and loved it. I would suggest either upgrading to Windows 8 or investing in a keyboard.
