Beats Audio, that is why.. and dont forget to pick up your MONSTER CABLES when you buy this BEATS tablet by HP, and also dont forget your extended warranty..

I never hopes for a company to go under .. but… I hope if there is a war that the enemy tagets the HP headquarters with a bomb.

Too bad Jellybean didn’t suck so bad. There is a lot to be said in “it just works”

Too bad that isn’t a phrase you can associate with Android

My iPad mini has lower res than my Nexus 7 but which one has the better picture quality

That would be the iPad mini

Google will get it eventually. They haven’t gotten to palatable mediocrity just yet (Android) but they are getting close

Let’s face it the PC/Server market will virtually be dead in a decade and so will HP. Long live EC2! and Google services that won’t suck in the future

If HP went back to its Inventing ways, Where it started. HP could easliy out do the Tablets right now, But the ? is will HP be doing something different or just making another tablet that does the same as all the other ones…Might be interesting to see, but hopefully they get it right this time cause I dont see them getting another chance at it…

lately HP has made some really high quality elitebook laptops that compete against high end lenovo’s, that is a pretty limited market. the other thing HP has done for years is make super low priced but crappy laptops. if they do the same they may succeed selling to price conscious customers.

how about a $99 – $150 tablet that’s not quite as good as the nexus and made from a shiny plastic. later it could be sold in multiple sizes with some higher end specs but still cheapo construction.

this would be applying the same recipe to tablets that HP has brought to laptops for more than a decade. it made them tons of money in laptops(and desktops) so why not repeat with tablets.

Nexus 10 is better than iPad’s retina. 2560×1600 resolution.

We need an Android tablet with a screen as good as the iPad’s Retina. Until that happens I won’t buy one irrespective of whether it’s 7 inch or 10 inch.

Take a look here for global market data. http://www.statista.com/statistics/208900/market-shares-of-tablet-vendors/ Samsung is top of tablets, too (excluding Apple).

What are they going to bring to the table with an Android tablet? It’s not enough to simply put out a Tegra 4 tablet with the same specs as everyone else, there has got to be a compelling reason to buy an HP tablet over a Samsung or another Android tablet! I highly doubt people will buy HP based on their brand alone (which is next to worthless at this point). If they come up with something unique, or have a higher quality product, they might have a chance…if they put out something average, they are doomed to failure.

But HP already has an Android based tablet. It’s name is … Touchpad.
Since WebOS didn’t get much attention, the more lively Android communities came up with the alternatives, using the HP Touchpad hardware but running the latest Android OS versions.
