 This is a Great Laptop that does more than most at a great price May 30, 2008

I have owned many touch screen laptops starting with Fujitsu's B series and P series starting 8 years ago and loved it but with one drawback there was no optical drive and very slow but everything else I loved. Then I went to the HP tx1000 Model and was very disappointed the touch screen wasnt really a touch screen it was more like a punch screen you had to push very so for the monitor to recognise your touch and the pen wasnt anything like a tablet it was only touch and was impossible to write on. Now I am writing on a tx2000 model that I got at Costco and I really do love it the touch screen is wonderful and very sensitive not to mention the pen is a true tablet pen that senses the pen without even touching the screen and writes amazingly well. For the money you can beat this laptop and if you look hard you can find it for under $1000 pretty much fully loaded and it does so much more than a normal laptop that costs the same. You really wont be disappointed this laptop does everything you would want it to and more at a cost that will make you smile. I love it.
 The fingerprint reader is difficult to find!... May 27, 2008

Okay, at first I wrote a review saying they were sending me the wrong model. I'm updating now because, after receiving TWO laptops, I finally gave up on Amazon and called HP. They explained to me that: 1) the tx2110 will, indeed, have tx2000 written all over it, and 2) the fingerprint reader is NOT where the tutorial shows - it's actually on the lefthand side of the screen (the little gold rectangle). The tutorial shows it on the keyboard, so I kept thinking I had an older model! I showed it to half a dozen people (all very computer literate), and none of them noticed it either!
Also, the keyboard is rather flimsy. I've had this laptop for only ONE week, and I've already detected weakness and squeaking in the area where my right wrist rests. That's also where the Wireless antenna is housed, so I'm hoping it holds up under the stress.
 Good and bad May 26, 2008

Pro:
Vista is nice and easy to get used to. Runs pretty smoothly. Neat multimedia, and great combination of features (bluetooth, a/b/g/n network, 250gb hdd, fingerprint reader.
OneNote software! Cool and useful! I give it an A
Con:
Battery life is a bit lacking. I'd figure with new technology, I'd be able to get 3 hours off of one charge... I'm falling off a bit before that with the included battery. The included battery is bulky and sticks out further than I would have liked, it sticks out of the unit. Fingerprint software isn't as great for web applications, either needs tweaking, or doesn't work at all (amazon)
Also, can't seem to get a time on battery life, I've cycled it a few times, but all I get is a percentage.
Windows media center lags, and crashes regularly. For shame, microsoft.
Also, afternote: Do not purchase this item from OfficeDepot, do not do any business with them. I was misled by a salesperson saying that there would be a $500 rebate on this item for memorial day sale.
It turns out that the same was for the tx2100z model, and they would not only not match the price, they would not take the return, 4 days later.
I wish I had purchased from amazon.
HP Tablet Notebook tx2120us May 25, 2008

So far I am very impressed with my new HP tablet notebook. Many other reviews highlight all the positive features. There are a couple of negative features though. One is Vista 64bit. If you have older software you will run into compatibility issues and if the software works it will run significantly slower than when running under Vista 32bit. I have an Avertech Notebook which has a slower processor and less memory, but is running Vista 32bit and it runs circles around my new HP tablet notebook on a lot of the software I use. I purchased and returned an older model of HP's tablet notebook. The tablet screen was a joke. However this model has a Wacom touch screen which is unbelievably more impressive. The only other negative is the screen is grainy. You get used to it, but when you see another screen next to it you are reminded of how bad it is. Saying all this I would still highly recommend this product and am giving it five stars. Most people aren't going to have the older software so this won't affect them. As far as the screen it is a trade off of having a touch screen tablet.

I personally love this computer. It's small and light enough to be carried around well, especially if you're a college student walking around campus. Most other comments have been covered, but the other reviews were right--it does get warm. I usually sit with a book under it on my lap. My boyfriend has an HP DVsomething model, and his gets warm too, so maybe it's an HP thing. I'm going to invest in a cooler to help with that problem.
Also, if you're wanting to get a laptop sleeve to keep the computer in, note that the battery sticks out the back about another 3/4 an inch. I have a Built NY 12" laptop sleeve, and it's pretty tight to get it in, but it can be done.
