HP Touchpad is available now at Amazon and Co. Fellas over at Netbooknews made this nice unboxing video with a comparison to the Apple iPad2, Eee Pad Transformer and BlackBerry PlayBook. So if you’re curious to see how the HP Touchpad stacks up against the rest, check out the video below.

HP’s first WebOS Tablet is available at places like Amazon.com, ready to ship. The 16 GB Version is priced at $499.99 and for the 32 GB Version you would have to put $599.99 on the table.

The BlackBerry Playbook, available for $489 also at 16GB, is holding its own as an enterprise tablet
