There's a rumor HP is running Windows 8 on Touchpads internally for development purposes. I've looked but haven't found examples of people installing Win8 on Touchpad. This would be a cheap way to check out the OS on its major intended target form factor for cheap. Any pointers?

If the rumor is true, it's unlikely that you or I would be able to run the system even if we could get it loaded. Windows 8 Dev Preview didn't have drivers for my SATA drive, I doubt it comes preinstalled with drivers for the Touchpad. If HP has it running, it's because they ported their drivers to Windows 8. AFAIK, they have not released those publicly.
