Since everyone is asking for people to get them one when they can't find one on their own, let's try to keep the requests to this thread here:

HP.com states that they are trying to fulfill orders and may have leftover stock

http://www.shopping.hp.com/go/touch...ight_banner_touchpad_oos_821&aoid=35252#faq_1

Also, more information on orders placed through HP.com
As of the 23th, your best bet is HP restocking if you dont have a pad.

There is also Newegg but we may have to see.

Dear webOS developer:

We have opened the next chapter for webOS, and we understand that you must have many questions. Yesterday we announced that we will focus on the future of webOS as a software platform but we will no longer be producing webOS devices. While this was a difficult decision, it's one that will strengthen our ability to focus on further innovating with webOS as we forge our path forward. Throughout this journey, our developers will continue to be a vital part of the future of webOS.

We will continue to support, innovate and develop the webOS App Catalog. Our intent is to enhance our merchandising and presentation of your great products and to continue to build our webOS app ecosystem.

As many of you are aware, we are currently scheduled to hold many developer events around the world. We are planning to continue with these events, however, due to the recent announcements; the nature of them will change. These updates will be posted on our events registration site this coming week. We are eager to present to you the updated strategy for webOS and to hear your feedback.

Lastly, I wish to express our sincere appreciation for your ongoing support for webOS and the many teams responsible for it here at HP. This is a particularly dynamic time in the mobile industry and sometimes tough decisions need to be made about not only what to do, but also what not to do. This has been one of those times. Together with our great webOS developer community, we are confident that we will meet the challenges ahead and build momentum for optimal success.

We will be communicating with you frequently over the next few weeks and we look forward to hearing from you throughout this process.

Thanks for your support

Richard Kerris
VP webOS Developer Relations

It may be a futile, doomed effort, but they aren't killing and totally orphaning the Touchpad. Yeah, it's going to be limited, but it's ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS! A 9.7" tablet with Gorilla Glass screen for a C-note. Hell, I'm gonna get one just cuz! There's a Kindle app, so BAM!!! $100 eReader!

[quote name='cRodz']I am guessing you order from Hp.com too on the 19th?

No confirmation email on my side[/QUOTE]

not sure if that was directed at me but I did order on hp.com academy on the first night. used the SAVE15HP code.
 
Damn, get to Best Buy ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!! Just called 1 and had a screaming match with the b*tch who didn't want to transfer me. Shut her the f**k up, QUICK. Said customers were waiting outside. Said they're about to get sold.

My car is home, my ex is at the store. AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The link "IamTheCheapestGamer" posted, a few pages back, works.

Well, Congrats to ya'll who get 1.

:.(
 
[quote name='Kylearan']I got very lucky on this - barely got an order in for one of these. Was trying to pick up one for my wife and I, but the second one came up as full price, so we're still looking for one. Assuming they don't oversell or anything. (Crosses fingers)

There are still many sites that have not updated their prices - mostly atypical sites and links, as the normal avenues get flooded pretty fast. Here are the ones I compiled, and I hope they may help someone if/when they go live.

These are all listed as in stock, as of 11:12am EST on Sunday.

Barnes & Noble - 16GB and 32GB

Buy.com (all sellers) - 16GB and 32GB

eCost.com (selectable in menu) - 16GB & 32GB (selectable in menu)

Newegg.com - 16GB and 32GB

Provantage - 16GB and 32GB

MacMall (selectable in menu) - 16GB & 32GB

Geeks.com - 16GB and 32GB

Adorama.com - 16GB and 32GB

CDW.com Inventory and Pricing - All HP Models

NextWarehouse - Model FB401UA (I don't know model numbers, sorry!)

NextDayPC.com - Various Models

BeachAudio.com (shows 50+ in stock, each model) - 16GB and 32GB

Abes of Maine - 16GB and 32GB[/QUOTE]

You can add office max to the list. They still haven't dropped in price but they're all showing stock.
 
[quote name='doodofdoods']People are saying the 16gb is in stock at amazon, I don't see it though.[/QUOTE]

Only 3rd party sellers at this point. Unless they went on sale for less then a minute I'd say someone is confused.
 
[quote name='doodofdoods']People are saying the 16gb is in stock at amazon, I don't see it though.[/QUOTE]

I saw it for a second. Didn't let me add to cart.
 
LOL - went to BB. No one outside at 10:45 - I'm thinking that's a good sign... Until I saw the hand scratched note on the store schedule that said they opened at 10. Some dud was standing in line with the last one. I'm done. Must be divine intervention.
 
[quote name='confoosious']not sure if that was directed at me but I did order on hp.com academy on the first night. used the SAVE15HP code.[/QUOTE]


So did I and I got my confirmation at 6am this morning :applause:
 
[quote name='Those']Dammit! Waitlist, chances of getting it... POOR. In big bold letters :([/QUOTE]

What number in line would you happen to be?
 
[quote name='sharpeone']What number in line would you happen to be?[/QUOTE]

Way back, I think they said 500+ XD
 
[quote name='kaoticz']Amazon was just showing it for 399 though?[/QUOTE]

I saw it at 399 in my cart. in stock. clicked on it and was taken to product page that showed it as a lightning deal. clicked on that and checked out.

I might throw mine back if I can score the 32GB. I expect others are thinking the same so I wouldn't be surprised if they come back in stock AFTER the 32gbs go on sale.
 
[quote name='soccerstud652']im 500 in line. wow[/QUOTE]

Damn it, it just popped up and said that my time was up on the deal, even though I was 6th in line. Does that mean that everyone already paid for it?
 
[quote name='doodofdoods']holy crap the touchpad was a lightning deal at $99. too late to get it now.[/QUOTE]

Wow, SO wasn't expecting that...well, just a little.
 
[quote name='aTaRiFrEaK223']That went fast. Got one before they sold out, just in case my order at HP gets cancelled.[/QUOTE]

Me too in case my best buy gets cancelled.
 
Last night, I called a BB 30+ minutes away from me because their stock showed a positive value and was told that the best way to "reserve" my touchpads was to buy them at the full price and get an adjustment the next day. So I promptly paid my money, and waited for the confirmation email that never came, but still drove the 40 minutes to the store to get there when they opened.

I went to the in-store pickup line, talked with the lady working there, she said I had no confirmed order. I told her I had already been charged and the email I received said I wouldn't be charged until inventory was confirmed. I asked a guy behind me who had a confirmation email when he pre-ordered and he said "7AM this morning, bro. Got my confirmation at 9."

So I turned back to the girl and asked her how that makes sense for his order from TODAY gets confirmed, but my order from last night does not. Then she responds with "Well, we must not have had the stock last night". So I looked over at the stacks and stacks of Touchpads they were giving out to the people with the tickets, and I was like "Well, clearly you have stock now."

"Oh, we can't sell those, those are for people who waited in line."

"Yeah, but I have already PURCHASED mine. That guy right over there right now is getting money out of his wallet NOW to buy one. I did that over 12 hours ago. And now you have nothing for me because you're handing them out to people who didn't prepay or who paid like 3 hours ago. Can I speak to a manager?"

The manager came over and basically just said "I don't know what you expect me to do about an glitch in the system like this. Take it up with Best Buy, here's the number and my name. I need to help other guests now." and then walked away. My BF who was with me asked him "So we're basically just screwed even though we've already been charged and you seem to have way more than enough on hand to give us what we bought?"

"Yes." was all he responded with. I am so furious.
 
I think I somehow got in on the 16gb from Amazon...but it shows it's for $399 shipped and sold by Amazon. I'm going to chat with a CSR about getting it adjusted right now.

Small crowd outside my bb this morning.

One of the employees was outside talking to them. One customer says "So what your saying is all the employees got them?" Thats Right!

if you scroll further down, you might see the lightning deal discount.
 
literally just got back from waiting in line at my bestbuy, they had about 80 total units with the 32gb/16gb combined, gf and I picked one up, so damn grateful for it
 
Finally got one 16 gig via Lightning Deal at Amazon, $99.99! Yay!

For those that tracked it down through the product page/all sellers and paid $399, Amazon appears to be doing price adjustments too!

I would guess that Amazon will sneak an unadvertised Lightning Deal on the 32 gig at some point today. The 16 gig lightning deal was unannounced.
 
Hooray! Posting from my 32GB Touchpad. I'm glad I bought it full price as soon as I heard this whole rigamarole going on.
 
On one side; Damnit, Amazon had it! I could've used Prime! Nooo!

On the other side; mine's guaranteed to come in, I didn't have to wade and beg for mercy on the whole Lightning Deal thing (which is absurd in my eyes), and I have food.

Choices :(
 
[quote name='TwistedOrange']It says my BB order is being processed and cannot be cancelled. Hope this is a good sign.[/QUOTE]

hope so too, while i was in line, the manager was talking about people who are having their online orders cancelled, not sure if that was for in-store pick up or not
this is in ft. lauderdale though, best of luck

office depot here, there was a fist fight with 7 people
as I walk in, someone is getting punched in the head
