I picked up a 32G one thru CL after all my attempts to source one at 99/149 failed.
I'm waiting for android ICS port - to start the webOS/Android conversion.
Just playing with WebOS 3.0.2 for the last few weeks. Seems to be pretty decent Tab, a bit heavy though.
Should I upgrade to WebOS 3.0.4?

The only other comment is the WebOS update. From what I remember reading, some people were having issues installing Android because of it. Not sure if it might also affect the ICS implementation.

Android 4.0 - Ice Cream Sandwich is out for HP Touchpad
Cyanogenmod has released Alpha 0 of Android 4 for the Touchpad. You can get it here:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15509-rel...od-9-touchpad/
Note: this is, apparently, pretty buggy, judging from the comments on Rootzwiki. Support for the camera and hardware-accelerated video doesn't work, which mean problems with Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, HBOonDemand and Skype video.
I'm going to wait for the next release -- I'm quite satisfied with Android 3.5 on my Touchpad.

I have 2 32G I'm about to wipe clean and put up on Ebay as both my wife and I were given Samung Galaxy 10.1s with 4G.
Both have Zapp's screen protectors, HP cases, and HP charging docks. I'd feel better selling them to someone from this community rather than a stranger on Ebay. Haven't thought about pricing yet.
