Got the HP Touchpad Tab for $99!!

[Bouncer]

Fuck yea, bitch was hard to find but I got it. Thing was $400 just yesterday lmao.

I know HP is getting out of hardware and its not the best tab on the market etc.. but $99 is a helluva deal for a 16gb tab.

Steps to install Preware on your new webOS tablet, the HP Touchpad is fairly simple. This is very similar to the method that is used for webOS phones.
Turn on Developer mode
You turn on developer mode for the HP TouchPad the same way as a smartphone.
Go to Just Type and type "webos20090606" without quotes or "upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart" without quotes. Any of these will prompt the search to pull of the Developer Mode. You turn it on and your device should be in developer mode. If it requests a password you may just press submit.
You use webOS Quick Install and select the feeds application, and select Preware. And Boom! Preware is installed. Simple and easy.
