I saw a video today at MobileWhack that I thought you might like to see.   The video demonstrates how multitouch technology works with a demonstration of zoom in and out and scrolling using multitouch on different applications including a user’s inbox, the Internet, pictures, and rotating images such as Google Earth.

Prices will start at $1149 and move way up from there. I am going to seriously look into buying one of these. I’m in the market right now anyhow.

Laptop Mag got some hands on with the TX2 and shares their 1st Impressions…

Since the debut of the Apple iPhone, people want to use their fingers to control their technology. Touch phones and touch cameras are all the rage, but can you navigate your laptop in the same way yet? Unlike with the iPhone, there is a learning curve when using the HP TouchSmart tx2z and, until additional applications are written for the platform, the functionality is limited. Nevertheless, consumers who are looking for advanced tablet functionality in a very mobile form factor and want to sit back and use their fingers to navigate the Web will be more than satisfied with the HP TouchSmart tx2z.
