HP TouchPad gets demoed on video at Computex

The HP TouchPad is about to hit shelves in all of its webOS 3.0 glory and June 12th is the nearly official release date, but mere days before that it was spied at Computex. Curiously enough, it was displayed in hardware maker SanDisk’s booth. The company is the one responsible for the memory storage in HP’s TouchPad and claims to have used high-speed memory modules with capacity varying between 16GB, 32GB and 64GB.

The interface on HP’s tablet seemed to run buttery smooth with seamless transitions and fast switches between landscape and portrait orientation. Add to that the neat card implementation of multitasking in webOS 3.0 and HP’s slate can manage to at least look different than the vast majority of tablets. HP has also introduced a unified contacts application bringing together information about the offline details of a contact like phone and address along with social networking. Check out the video demo below to get a feeling about the speed of the HP TouchPad.
