    Hi guys,

    I just bought a new HP1120US tablet for my wife, and I have two questions for you guys:

    - Are there any skins (to put on the top cover) available for this model? Any ideas where I could find them?

    - The notebook I bought has everything but bluetooth. Is it possible to buy the internal bluetooth network alone??

    thanks a lot!!!

    Check out skinit.com, or schtickers.com. They might have a suitable skin.

    Thanks, skinit doesn't have any skins for this model ,but on schtickers you can set the proper size.. I'll buy from there.

    Any ideas on the bluetooth adaptor?? Would you know if it comes on the same card as the wireless card, or if its a different one that can be swapped in??

    im so tired of hp nickel and diming....bluetooth shoud be standard. Maybe if they started including it standard, bluetooth useage would pick up here in the states. In Europe and Asia its everywhere.

    I agree.. I bought last week a TX1120us for my wife. It has absolutely everything (touchscreen, dvd with lightscribe, remote control with IR, the list goes on and on) but it lacks bluetooth!! Absolutely ridiculous..

    The price was was good, tough.. but they could have added 20 bucks for the bluetooth.

    You could always get a USB Bluetooth adapter.
