Nice enough. Updating it requires you go through some odd recovery methods because HP isn't serving the latest version OTA from what I can see. The UI is laggy at times, probably because it's all HTML/JS/CSS behind the scenes. The OS itself is pretty modifiable, so I've already thrown a few patches onto it to fix some things I didn't like. Aside from that, haven't had enough time to really play with coding for it.

Got mine today. It's heavier than I was expecting, but it seems like a nice machine so far.

are there still some pads knocking around?

is it worth a check on ebay?

Hadn't looked, but I REALLY doubt the ebay sellers would be doing $99 ones!

HP are apparently doing another bunch, mostly because they suddenly started selling, and HP went "WTF? Do they want it or not!!!?"

I doubt they'll be $99, either, though!

They're only doing a last run because their suppliers ran off a ton of components for the thing and now they've got stuff sitting around that they can't do anything with.
