I Had To Post This Word For Word, because it was just
TOO STUPID TO BE BELIEVED !!!

HP TouchPad
Hewlett Packard's webOS-based TouchPad tablet is back from the dead again and hitting Best Buy store shelves this week. Starting Tuesday on BestBuy.com you can pick up the 32GB version of the TouchPad for $150 with the purchase of a new HP or Compaq PC.
Alternatively, you can pick up the webOS tablet alone for $600. The tablet will be available at Best Buy retail locations starting Friday.
Best Buy's top HP PC bargain is a Compaq desktop computer for $300 with 2GB RAM, 500GB HDD, 1.65 GHz AMD E processor, six USB 2.0 ports, and Windows Home 7 Premium (64-bit). Add to that the $150 price tag for the TouchPad and you end up with a boring tower PC and a webOS-based tablet with almost no future for about $450.
That's $50 less than the $500 16GB iPad 2, a tablet that most certainly has a future and a massive catalog of third-party apps.

Creeping Changes in Google Reader and Gmail
Spent Most of the morning dealing with the NEW changes to Google Reader. Thankfully, I don't use it much and rely on Delicious (under new mgmt) as an interesting site boolmarker.
Reeder
Flipboard
Apple insiders use either Reeder or the flashier Best-in-Breed Flipboard. Looking for an similar program for the PC,
I found a nifty little Gem called Feedly, that works for Desktop, Smart Phone and Tablet and imports your Google Reader data too.
It also works in Google+!!!
As for the Changes in Gmail, I'm still thrashing about with that.
I'll get to you on that slippery slope.
Wingman.
