 THIS LAPTOP DELIVERS WHAT IT SAYS ON THE SITE September 23, 2008
It's small, lightweight, powerful. Multitasking with Vista is seamless. Can play most of the new games on this laptop. Can use most new editing tools like Photoshop, Adobe Suite, Ulead, Video Creator. No lags and delays. Fast working time. Processor and memory do not max out easily. Great for work and entertainment!
Note that the AMD Processor generates a lot of heat so be prepared for this. But for me, the tablet mode compensates for this hot drawback.
My first Tablet :D September 15, 2008
This laptop is very good as for its price... its problem though is that is runs very hot, and the battery drains a bit fast... nevertheless, the touch screen feels good, and the keyboard is very conformable.. still adjusting to mouse... Another annoying issue is the lights of the buttons of the screen... I wish I could switch the lights off..

I've had this laptop for less than 24 hours now. Went in to buy a VAIO, but the touch screen was irresistible. The laptop performs well most of the time. My only complaint - the keyboard keys are too hard. You won't notice the difference when you tap the keys a few times - but when you spend hours typing - you will!
The glossy screen is extremely painful in a room with fluorescent lighting. It makes it virtually unuseable unless you are in a dimly lit room. I haven't even tried it in daylight. Along with the hard keyboard, this is one of the most "unergonomic" laptops in the market.
Some users have mentioned that it gets pretty hot. Well, I think most laptops get hot - unless you're running a video or loaded a webpage on steroids, the heat is just about same as other laptops.

Positives: nice ergonomics.
Negatives: the TX2510 has a vastly underpowered Central Processing Unit, a very slow hard drive, a short battery life, runs very hot, and has a substandard display. My first TX2510 died after less than four hours of use. Staples refunded my full purchase price without any questions. I purchased a second TX2510 from Office Depot and found that the operating system and applications software often froze, just locked-up or presented the Blue Screen of Death. The operating system would not shut down when attempting to reboot. I had to take out the battery to power off. As a professional and certified computer professional, I applied all my skills but was unable to fix any of the problems. I cannot recommend the TX2510, it is a poor choice for your consideration. I asked Office Depot for a refund but Office Depot would not honor their two week return policy. Hewlett Packard's technical support could not fix the problems either. Hewlett Packard Executive Office also refused to repair or exchange the TX2510. HP blamed the many problems on Windows Vista. Since Vista is the problem, I asked if I could downgrade to Win XP. HP stated that the TX2510 cannot be downgraded to Windows XP.
Conclusion: The TX2510 is a total loss unless you want a to use it as a DVD player. If you do purchase this expensive door stop; I recommend that you also purchase the following accessories: mittens for the heat, headphones to block out the fan noise, Ibuprofen for the eye and neck strain, a long extension cord, and a backup DVD player so you will be able to make it to the end of your movie.HP Pavilion TX2510US 12.1-inch Laptop (2.10 GHz AMD Turion X2 ZM-80 Processor, 3 GB RAM, 250 GB Hard Drive, DVD Drive, Vista Premium) Black

This little gem is doing everything well and more...especially after "decrapification" with PC decrapifier. I purchased it mostly with intention to use it as PDF reader and for the tablet function. The handwriting input and recognition are nothing short but amazing. Fingerprint reader allows you to login into webaccounts, which are too many these days, with just a sweep of a finger -- very convenient and actually useful! The computer is fast when it is up and running. A little slow to boot and switch users. The major gripe I have with it is the HEAT or my the HEAT!! Once the fan kicks in, it blows hot air like Chinese dragon! I live in Phoeniz, AZ and the last thing I need is the extra heat on my lap. The fan is super noisy. The noise is very noticeable even in moderately crowded rooms. So if you are sensitive to these issues, I would recommend to stay away from this product. If you can live with it, this is the best tablet PC you can get for <$1K.
