Relive Think Beyond in three-and-a-half minutes [video] 32
Wed, 04 May 2011 8:05 pm EDT 
Think Beyond may have been nearly three months ago, but that doesn’t mean the memories have faded just yet. From early that morning and through all the announcements, hands-ons, and two-dozen or so articles we had a blast. A very concentrated and exhausting blast, but a blast nonetheless. HP has captured and condensced the energy of Think Beyond down into an awesome 3:32-minute-long video set to Darkel’s “My Own Sun.” You might be wondering why your esteemed and totally photogenic PreCentral editors didn’t get any camera time in the video; it's probably because we were too busy making news happen (and sitting too close to the stage for good filming). Although you do get to see the back of Derek's head at 1:57 as he films a TouchPad demo. Check out the video after the break.
Edit: HP apparently decied to set the video as private. To that we say this: Booooo. Seriously, it was pretty awesome. If you missed it, you'll just have to take our word for it.

NICE!!!
I really enjoyed that.
cool video.. that's the first video I've seen that shows tts sending a photo to the Touchpad.
Actually, if you pay close attention, the rendering on the Touchpad displays the picture but it seems to be sourced from a website and not just from the photos app.
I see that now. Good eye ;)
is that how it's supposed to work? Maybe it can't actually share files this way?
Very cool vid. Maybe you guys should work for HP Marketing. :)
Saw some good friends in that little clip. It was so much fun to attend :)

Great video. Makes me recall how excited I was before the event and then I remember how sad I was after.
I had a reason to be sad. Three months later and my Sprint Pre Minus still doesn't run WebOS 2, and the closest WebOS replacement is the tiny Veer on AT&T. Sprint appears to be holding steady on zero interest in WebOS and I'm still asking "how is HP going to make it right"?
Mine runs 2.1, not sure why yours doesn't. Thank you Palm for making a device so easy for the community to work on. Sorry Sprint is such a small carrier they can't take a chance on you again.. but hopefully now HP will market you better and maybe get some decent numbers so they will. Truly that will make it right but I won't be a a whiny consumer and expect miracles in a years time to turn the whole boat around. All this "make it right" bull **** is just that.
Nilay Patel (Thisismynext), Aaron Baker (Phonedog), and Noah Kravitz (TechnBuffalo) all have cameo's! Where is Dieter?!
aww brought a tear to my eye. @sprint, where is my Hp Pre 3?
Really SprintI have to wait til September for the Pre3! Oh, your putting WiMax into the phones HP. I see makes since. BTW nice video.
Nice indeed.
Think Beyond (at&t)
:p
Think Beyond (the next few months)
Looks good. Makes me optimistic for HP's ad campaign this summer, which I assume will only be going full-bore after all 3 devices are released (or at least announced). They need TV commercials that are catchy and upbeat like this.
P.S. Like this one better than the "Everyone On" ad/demo they had at the Think Beyond show.
Did you see the guy who wants to put the phone back on the Touchstone and drops it on the table? Yikes.
Man, the news about webOS is so slow that HP marketers are having to recycle stuff. Wonder if they'll figure a way to re-use the original CES announcement from 2009.
I am still waiting to see what HP is going to do to make it ok that we didn't get webOS 2.0 on our previous devices. Has anybody heard a rumor or update about what they are going to do?
They're going to make you buy a "New Device" like you do with every other phone that's a year or more old.
I'd love to watch this, but it tells me the video is private...huh?
Says "This is a private video" when I try to play it too. Guess I don't have the right credentials, not enough posts, something...
It's private for me, too. So I doubt it has something to do with credentials or number of posts.
I got private too.
The video went private :(
Yay! The video worked today!!
why relive it in 3 minuets when you can relive it in 10 seconds

put Webos on that sucker and NOW were talking. it's just *so* sad to see all these new hardware devices coming out. it was -great- knowing you palm. goodbye. tears.
Hey! The video is back!
So i'm guessing we wont find out bout the pre3 release until prob two weeks before it's released in Sept...This is so frustrating, smh...
unprivate again
