HP TouchSmart PCs get touch-enabled Hulu, Netflix, and Twitter
HP has come a long way from their first touch screen computer, the HP 150, in 1983. The two new TouchSmart PC’s are the TouchSmart 300, and the TouchSmart 600. The 300 comes with a 20 inch LCD screen and is priced at $899.00 while the 600 comes with a 23 inch LCD screen and is priced at $1049.00. Both of these PC’s will come with Windows 7 applications that allows their users to navigate services such as Twitter, control the streaming of videos from sites such as Hulu, play music from two music service providers, HP Music Store by Rhapsody from RealNetworks Inc. and Pandora Internet radio, and many other things. These applications are features limited to the TouchSmart 3.0 software suite by HP. The TouchSmart 300 and the TouchSmart 600 will be available for purchase on November 1st and October 22nd (the same day as the release of Windows 7). However if your waiting for a TouchSmart PC to come out to suit your business needs you might need to wait a little longer. The TouchSmart 9100 comes with a 23 inch LCD screen and will be $1299.00. This will be released in December and it is going to be an all-in-one PC for business. |
