I have talked to support about most of these issues and they are confirmed, reproducable bugs.
1. Google Calendar events added to touchpad device do not get sync'd to Google calendar. I spent 1 hour adding 50 events for my coming year to my touchpad, and none of it can be synced to other devices becase even though I get a notification, Sync completed, no sync occurrs.
2. I lost everything from a meeting with people arriving from three continents. I opened a document on Google Documents, then saved it locally on my touchpad. I made countless notes and annotations. Saved the document again, and I got a confirmation, "Document Saved" in the notification bar. I closed the document and went to find the document. No document is on the touchpad anywhere, and no changes were saved to Google docs. This problem was duplicated with a support specialist.
3. I lost 4 hours worth of work on a plane from the US to Asia. I wrote an email and saved it as a draft on my google email account. Obviously, I did not have any Internet connection. I selected "save draft" twice and the notification said "draft saved." Turns out the problem occurs because "Drafts was disabled by an administrator on the google account --- over 1 year ago. The Touchpad had just been set up. Turns out that the entry for the "Drafts" folder in the accounts setting on the touchpad was "blank" because of the google account. Instead of placing the draft email in the inbox or elsewhere, the touchpad deleted the draft. Yes this is a bizarre problem, and not likely to happen to others, but still, the touchpad said "saved draft" and no error occurred...
Seems to me that there are
1. Multiple sync problems with the touch pad.
2. Serious error reporting "errors" with the way that WebOS is written.
At this point I NEVER trust any information that is typed into my touchpad. Seems like I am running into a new error every other week that I use it... This device is UNTRUSTWORTHY as a BUSINESS tablet. It has already embarrassed me several times. Especially in the meeting where people came from three continents and we lost all the meeting notes.
