It's a pity how much their standards have sunk. The HP Touchpad was a decent tablet (a little late to the party with iPad 1 specs after the iPad 2 hit the market), but it was serviceable for the time, and I thought the build quality was excellent. It felt like a high-end tablet. The Wireless Bluetooth keyboard tablet, as well, I still find excellent.
Then they release the Slate two years later, and it feels like a cheap POS. The fact that they're aiming these for India with sub-standard display suggests they're trying to tap the budget/third-world market again.

What a waste.
