HP’s webOS devices are finally here: The Touchpad tablet—an sleek affair with iPad-competitive specs—as well as the bigger, badder Pre 3, and a teeny, Pixi-esque slider called the Veer.
Hands On: HP’s TouchPad Tablet Looks Great, But Moves Slow

Although the Touchpad I played with is not the final version, my impression of the HP TouchPad is that it is slow. Not incredibly slow. But compared to, say, the Motorola Xoom or an iPad, I noticed slight delays between my touch and the interface moving around. More
Hands On: The HP Veer Is Probably Too Tiny To Use For Normal Humans

The HP Veer is what I imagine would happen if you gave children the right to vote on what to size things. It is tiny.

The HP veer has the same body-shape as the Palm Pre and Pre 2, but is smaller-the size of a credit card. It’s got a 2.6-inch screen, Flash, 5-megapixel camera and a slide-out keyboard. It’s HSPA+, which means it’s AT&T or T-Mobile. More
