No point in doing 720p, stick to the ipad profile until somone comes out with a proper mkv decoder to save from transcoding.

Anyway to speed up the encoding? Mine seems to encode in realtime/slower, is this normal?

You have a similar spec machine to myself. Obviously encoding is done frame by frame and is entirely dependant on how busy the action is in the frame. I found it slightly faster than real time but not by much.

Shame handbrake doesn't support ATI stream or this would a lot more helpful.
I use Abyss web server, small footprint and very easy to configure.
If it is a compatible filetype (eg .mp4) then it will open in the native video player and stream it. Any other file will download as it would from any other website.
It works quite well to avoid using a USB cable or cloud storage (which is doubly annoying as you are moving a file out from the internal lan to the cloud and back internal again)
getting to grips with full fingered typing on the keyboard now. Lovely and sensitive with the 10 patch in preware applied
if you click the WiFi app menu in the top left you can adjust stored profiles, or are you looking for something a bit more feature rich?
The white looks quite good and running at 1.5Ghz makes quite a difference. Did yours have 3.0.2 preinstalled?
Just got mine delivered, seems like a nice devicebit bigger than I thought it would be! Any advances with android on it yet that anyone knows of?
Nothing significant, no.
When there is, you'll know about it!
Thanks. Got an annoying problem. I can connect to my work network (enterprise) but the connection drops after a couple of minutes and every time I try and connect I need to enter my username/password. Stored profiles shows it there along with my home network which connects automatically perfectly.

any reviews of the cheapy cases yet for the TouchPad?
I preferred Bhome to watch my movies. Quality was great. It streams them great from my NAS (Synology DS410). It's a bit of a PITA to have to convert them but I am only likely to do it with TV episodes and the odd movie that I might want to put on the TP when I go away. I put Toy Story 3 through Handbrake using the iPad profile and it looked awesome and played v. smooth on the TP streaming through Bhome.
