Hulu blocks its site on the HP TouchPad
Share:
That leaves the iPad and... Vizio 8 owners the sole tablet audience of the streaming service. For everything else, though, including Flash videos, the HP TouchPad would still work fine. Has any one of you, though, specifically ordered HP’s tablet to watch shows on Hulu? Feel free to leave your remarks in the comments section below.

So this is how you deal with capacity issues? Ban specific devices?

I don't understand why you would block your site from a piece of hardware. Are they penalizing people for not buying iPads???? That seems insane. So I'll need an iPad to watch Hulu and an Android tablet to visit a site that uses lots of Flash videos, and my HP Touchpad to interact with my flipping Palm Pre???
What a pain in the ass. I am pretty sick of proprietary BS. Seriously, they can't even come to a complete agreement on charging cables.

Has anyone been able to buy the HP Touchpad recently? I found out about this fire sale yesterday and can't find anyone with anything in stock?
This would make some great xmas presents for the family!

I checked the morning after they announced on every site I could think of and they were sold out. I suspect it took no more than an hour.
