HP Mini 5102 touchscreen criticized, needs improvement

Did you know that HP offers a touchscreen option for the business-centric Mini 5102? Of course you did. But do you think it's worth getting on your aluminum-clad netbook when you order?

Liliputing has a quick review of this HP Mini model. It's pretty responsive as Windows netbooks go though it does have several downsides. It's a bit imprecise though I think that's largely due to the fact that Windows isn't really a touch OS. The unit also cannot be converted to tablet mode so your arms might get a bit sore after a while. The touchscreen looks a bit thicker which will definitely add bulk to your machine.

Check out the video below for the full demo on this tech from HP.
