Hewlett Packard Pavilion tx2000 Review

I first saw the HP Pavillion tx2000 at work.  We have to use a tablet screen for our paperwork, and I really liked it.  When my husband and I were looking for a laptop, we both decided we wanted a tablet.

I like this one for it's size and weight - fits easily in my backpack, and doesn't weigh a ton.  The screen is smaller than the average laptop, but it certainly big enough for everyday e-mail, facebook, etc.  I think if you are really into games, the screen may not be big enough for you.  The built in webcam is great, and the bluetooth is really cool, once I learned how to use it.  Sending pictures between my Blackberry and the laptop has been really easy.

The CD/DVD drive is a bit awkward, but on a laptop this small, I don't know how else they could have put it in.  It has enough USB ports for all of the extra junk I tend to hook up to it (cameras, etc).  The memory is certainly big enough for all my pictures and music.

The mouse / touch pad thing takes a while to get used to, but once you catch on to how to use it best, it's pretty easy.

Shop around, there are some good prices out there for this.  I got mine for less than $1000.
