HP TouchPad Go: The 7″ Tablet I Want … But Will Never Have!

This week you are going to see 95% of the small tablet news focused on the Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet, but there is another 7″ tablet device that we just got some more pictures of that will never hit the market – the HP TouchPad Go.

There was news of the TouchPad Go in late September, revealing some of the specs:
- 1024 x 768 pixel 7″ 4:3 screen
- 1.5GHz dual-core SnapDragon processor
- 16GB on-board storage
- 1.3MP front-facing camera
- 5MP rear camera

We also heard that the back would be rubberized and matte, rather than the fingerprint-magnet TouchPad.

Now we get a bunch of images of the TouchPad Go from a first hands-on over at PalmJoy. These include the cool ‘family portrait’ from above featuring the TouchPad Go along with the TouchPad, Pre, Pre 3, Pixi, and Veer.

You can drool over a load of pictures on the PalmJoy page … and think of the cool device that might have been!

I have loved technology for as long as I can remember - and have been a computer gamer since the PDP-10! Mobile Technology has played a major role in my life - I have used an electronic companion since the HP95LX more than 20 years ago, and have been a 'Laptop First' person since my Compaq LTE Lite 3/20 and Powerbook 170 back in 1991! As an avid gamer and gadget-junkie I was constantly asked for my opinions on new technology, which led to writing small blurbs ... and eventually becoming a reviewer many years ago. My family is my biggest priority in life, and they alternate between loving and tolerating my gaming and gadget hobbies ... but ultimately benefits from the addition of technology to our lives!
