***The Official HP TouchPad Thread***

Camera app is in download and it feels snappir than before. Bookmarks are still there. I didn't have any go faster patches on this one but I suspect they will get wiped. My update was from 3.0.2.

3.0.4 takes up 7.5GB of memory.

Release Notes (from Palm's blog):

Some of the new functionality you'll find in the new update include:

A new Camera app for photos and video
The ability to pair non-webOS phones to your TouchPad, so you can answer calls on your TouchPad. Pairing with non-webOS Bluetooth keyboards has also been streamlined.
Support for OGG Vorbis music files
Online/offline messaging status support.

In addition to new features, you'll also experience better performance, user interface improvements, and other enhancements such as support for accelerometer events in Adobe Flash Player, and more robust Skype video calling.
 
It appears that some patches don't work and people have lost overclocks:

Installation complete. Govnah is intact, but Uberkernal not listed there even though it's still installed according to Preware. Removed and reinstalled > got this: "Kernel is not compatible with this webOS version, aborting" under Postinst section of log.

I went into Preware Saved Pkg list to reinstall all my patches, and I see a number of them are lacking the little green downloaded arrow. I assume this means they're not available in this update (until the dev's do some tweaking, I guess). Here they are:

Ad Blocker - able to reinstall
Add ThumbNav Controls - NOT able to reinstall
Advanced Reset Options - able to reinstall
Disable Lock Screen - able to reinstall
Just Charge by Default - able to reinstall
Launch with Folder View Minimized (Mail patch) - NOT able to reinstall
Mimic Outlook Formatting on Email Reply/Forward - NOT able to reinstall
Muffle System Logging - NOT able to reinstall
No Launcher Button - able to reinstall
Quiet powerd Messages (sic) - able to reinstall
Remove Dropped Packet Logging - able to reinstall
UberCalendar HD - NOT able to reinstall
Unhide Dev Mode Icon - able to reinstall
Unset CFQ IO Scheduler - able to reinstall
Unthrottle Download Manager - able to reinstall

Dang!

Yup, feels a lot more responsive on 3.0.4, especially the browser. When scrolling up and down pages it no longer jags side to side as easily it used to, still no scroll bar though.

Looking forward to what the patch and app updates might bring.

The keyboard seems to be much improved with regard to accuracy too.

Mine failed :(

I also had UberKernal on but put original back on before update

Ah well, saves me wasting time trying it out :)

Unless they super boosted the performance, I would never really use WebOS anyway. Waiting for the "glowing" icons on the cards when you launch any system apps was what really annoyed me.

Looks like when I put the stock Kernal back on it didn't take, a guy in the office has just tried and it has worked fine

Cool. I might try it now.

Edit: Will I lose my Android stuff or dual boot menu is there? If so I will give it a miss.

Yes but there are instructions somewhere to get it back I'm still struggling to get it on :(

Dont just try and install PalmKernal back over the top it doesn't work
 
The various niggles of CM7 A1 finally got to me. Also, the two right now can't co-exist that well without some odd problems. WebOS is slow but it's stable. Wiping mine clean and doing a webos only install untill ICS or stable GB build. 3.0.4 looks like a well needed update.
