First off I have a lightly used HP Touchpad. It is basically the size of an iPad (10"ish) and runs both WebOS and Android (Gingerbread or Ice Cream Sandwich Cyanogenmod ROMs). It is quite versatile and is really pretty awesome for the price. These babies sold out fast after HP chose to stop making hardware and have continued to be very popular in the secondary market due to continued support from HP on the WebOS side and LOTS of support on the Android ROM side from the open-source community. I currently have it Dual-booting WebOS and Gingerbread and will wipe it clean and get it dual-booting again if the customer prefers that particular setup. Comes in original box with all paperwork and charger. *Asking $205 Net TYD*

Storage: 16GB internal storage
Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon dual-core APQ8060
Processor speed: 1.2GHz
Graphics: Qualcomm Adreno core
Memory: 1GB

Next up is a used iPhone 3G. The screen is in near perfect condition from what I can tell. I tried to show this in the photos. There is some mild wear on the plastic body of the phone and the chrome bezel, but it is in excellent condition for the most part. It comes in the original box. I currently can't find the charger for it, but I will try to track it down. I may have an old iPod charger I can throw in the box for the customer who buys this. I considered using this device as a iPod Touch in my car, but I just got a new iPod Nano and don't need another media device. *Asking $95 Net TYD*

How could I get the Ipod to work with verizon wireless? Also what ports if any does the touch pad have. IE USB?
 
It's an iPhone 3G, not an iPod. Unfortunately it won't work on Verizon. AT&T uses GSM Cell Technology while Verizon uses CDMA. The HP Touchpad just has a Micro USB port used for charging and putting your media on it. That's all you need really. It's basically identical to the size and setup of an iPad. Volume rocker on the right, power button on the top right, home button on the bottom front, headphone jack on the top left.

Hope this helps,

Aaron
 
I see the iPhone says "Insert valid SIM card to activate phone..." Does it need a SIM card to function at all? Will it work as a regular iPod without phone capabilities without the SIM card, or is it useless until you put one in?
 
I forgot how this whole thing works. I read that if you just put any old sim in it, it will go away. I'll try to find my old sims and test that theory.
 
I found an old SIM card for the iPhone 3G and plugged it in. It now works just like an iPod touch basically. Just says "No Service" in the top corner.

Sorry.. I should have added that. It is a 16GB HP Touchpad

Storage: 16GB internal storage
Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon dual-core APQ8060
Processor speed: 1.2GHz
Graphics: Qualcomm Adreno core
Memory: 1GB
 
Just a nod of approval for the HP. I'm on one currently, and if you are thinking about a tablet, you won't be disappointed with the one being offered here. It operates on the Palm os (remember Palm pilots? HP bought the rights to the software, and developed these), which is being done way with. Don't worry about support. There will be answers to our problems for years to come. They just won't make updates anymore.

Operates like a smartphone, on the Android market, so think of this vs an ipad like a android phone vs an iphone. Almost as good without spending the long dollar! I dont even fire up my laptop or netbook anymore.

So, if you are toying with the idea of a tablet, this is a good deal. And as a sidenote, I don't know the seller or work for HP. Just wanted to throw in my 2 cents
 
Thanks for the plug KPT. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't gone yet. HP just open-sourced the WebOS software. This means that future support will come from a community of passionate palm followers. These are the same users who have already ported Android 2.3 Gingerbread and have a Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich alpha running on it. Truth is that I never used it much at all. I bought a very expensive laptop shortly after buying the HP Touchpad so it kind of fell by the wayside when my new toy arrived. I really want to keep it for reading and such, but I have so many things I want to buy right now (just bought my first handgun, need a holster, night sights, more mags, ammo, etc.) I just had to let her go.

I guess I better stop with the rant post.. Mods will bust my chops for this kind of stuff (sorry guys)
