No it won't. It is Windows / Mac software and the Touchpad doesn't run Windows or Mac it runs webOS.

And now for a completely pointless but amusing trick (well the first few times anyway) hold your TouchPad in landscape mode with the USB port to the left then minimise your cards. Drag a card you want to close all the way to the bottom and let go.... Weeeeeee slingshot
Obviously someone at Palm was either very bored or has a sense of humour. I take no credit for finding this, came across it on precentral

Yep, the above 'Easter Egg' is sounds from Angry Birds. There was one in webOS 2.0 that if you received an email with 'supercowpowers' (without apostrophes) as the subject, you'd get cows falling from the sky!

HP plans "one last run" of TouchPads

HP has said it will reopen its TouchPad production lines in response to the huge demand that followed its fire sale of the tablet.

“Since we announced the price drop, the number of enquiries about the product and the speed at which it disappeared from inventory has been stunning,” said Mark Budgell, a social media strategist with HP, in a company blog.

“Despite announcing an end to manufacturing webOS hardware, we have decided to produce one last run of TouchPads to meet unfulfilled demand.”

However, it's unclear when or where the devices will become available, with HP telling customers to watch its blog or register for more information.

“We don’t know exactly when these units will be available or how many we’ll get, and we can’t promise we’ll have enough for everyone. We do know that it will be at least a few weeks before you can purchase,” said Budgell.
