TechCrunch is reporting today that Hewlett Packard may have killed off the Slate Tablet due to poor windows 7 performance:

The real question is how would HP not know that performance would be bad when tons of people less familiar with the device knew this from the start.
YOU CANNOT PUT A DESKTOP OS ON A TABLET AND EXPECT WONDERLAND.
Hardware makers, please repeat the phrase above prior to any other wild ideas similar in nature.
Things could possibly be better if Microsoft would get a clue and use their new Phone OS 7 on these portable devices. When and whether that will happen will be up to Microsoft but it's really agonizing that they don't see the HUGE WHITE MOOSE staring right at them. I blame Ballmer.
HP's only hope at this point is to use their newly aquired WebOS software that they got access to when they bought Palm for 1.2 Billion. Knowing HP, they will still find some way to screw this up.
