New Touchpad? Here's your "Get Started" guide - PreCentral Forums
1. Upgrade WebOS to the most recent version. Click the arrow on your bar in the bottom right and go to "Settings -> System Updates"
2. Install Preware (which is sort of like
Installous for iOS but without all the illegal apps). Guide to do this here :

3. Overclock your touchpad if you like. Stock speed is 1.2ghz. You can overclock the touchpad to either 1.5 or 1.7ghz. This required preware and a couple other apps. Guide here :

- The best website for finding cracked/illegal apps and games is :

the cracked apps come in .ipk format and can be installed via the webOSquickinstall that you downloaded when you put preware onto your touchpad.
- There is a different browser that I like much more than the vanilla one. Download it here :
Download webosbuzz.com.maklesoft.browser_1.1.0_all.ipk for free on Filesonic.com
- You can install Ubuntu on your touchpad. There is a guide here but it's pretty time-consuming:
