My TouchPad Today: The Brutality of TouchPad Copy and Paste - LikeThe Stone Age?

The Copy/Paste functionality on the current HP TouchPad can be readily summed up in three words.

• Brutal
• Brutal
• Brutal

This isn't a new discovery, but the release of Quickoffice HD (w/document editing) shines a whole new light on how badly this function was designed.

I think the cavemen could work faster with a chisel and stone!

My TouchPad Today: Quickoffice HD on the TouchPad

I installed the editable version of Quickoffice (Quickoffice HD) on my TouchPad a couple of nights ago, but haven't had an opportunity to take it out for a ride on the "highway" yet. (I've only ventured just a bit outside of the driveway.)

First impressions...

• With the brief spin I took "around the block", I think I will ultimately be ok, though not overjoyed, with Qo HD.  
• A pain point I see for me is the TP's dreadful Copy/Paste functionality when working with spreadsheets. My brief test drive showed it to be a real productivity killer, just like it has been with anything else thus far on the TP that has needed Copy/Paste.
• Overall (and stating the totally obvious), the TP is now much closer to what it should have been for the July 1 / July 17 launch.

Maybe this upcoming weekend I'll get to report more fully on life with the TP and Quickoffice HD.
