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

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!

Just to pass time while we wait for our orders, we should start posting Ferengi-style listings from Ebay or CL for the fun of it...or maybe not...some CAGs might start raging...
 
[quote name='TwistedOrange']The guy flat out lied about the listing. This is what he put in it:

"SAVE HUGE MONEY OVER RETAIL"

"YOU SIMPLY CAN'T FIND A BETTER DEAL"[/QUOTE]

Lmao! Hurry, hurry, hurryyyyyy!!!!!!

[quote name='McNutsack']Irony ^^^ being negative while dissing others for being negative. Thanks, we needed that lil dose.[/QUOTE]

I could be mistaken, but if you were the one who said you'd "hang" yourself over one(something like that), I figured you 'needed' a " lil dose".
 
[quote name='Chacrana']Sounds like you're embarrassing yourself by stressing over someone else's life right now...[/QUOTE]

lol
 
Wow, I probably missed some good drama here since I saw the words HP Touchpad and immediately ignored it since day one. I must be the only one on this site who doesn't give a shit about tablets.
 
When I go to the SMB Order Status page, after I log in, I click on my order then it asks for my zip code. After I type that in, it brings up my order page that has the place for a tracking number, ship date, etc. But it says not shipped yet with no tracking provided. It's already been through the "sent order to order management" phase. Anyone else get this type of page when checking status? Any idea what it means as far as status? It doesn't really tell me anything. Said my estimated ship date was yesterday, which didn't happen.
 
[quote name='psunami']And he is selling them for $259.99

If people are dumb enough to buy them for that amount, they deserve to be taken advantage of.[/QUOTE]

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-HP-Touc...=US_Tablets&hash=item27bda851ca#ht_794wt_1396

If you look on eBay most auctions for the 16 gig are hovering around $300

So yeah after fees and what not, people are *easily* making $100+ in profit off the touchpads.

How much will these sell in the long run? A year from now it won't be worth stashing to re-sell down the road because faster models will be out from other competitors, and who knows if touchpads can be made for a profit at $300 or less in the future.

This is a hoarders dream in terms of profit. If a hoarder can get their hands on 50 of em at $100 profit thats a cool 5k.
 
[quote name='advanced']Dealing with Office Depot live chat customer service was hard. I hate canned responses when it should be "live". Whatever. I'm hoping everything goes through. Order hasn't been cancelled, so I've got that looking up for me.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='megamanx']What is the deal with insight. They still have some in stock. Are they legitimate?[/QUOTE]

They dont have stock. Their inventory count is frozen. You're almost 2 days late to them.
 
[quote name='megamanx']What is the deal with insight. They still have some in stock. Are they legitimate?[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure, I successifully ordered one through my company's insight account a couple of hours ago but was greeted with a sold out message when we tried to order another one about a half hour later. I figured it was worth a shot since I know other people who want one and I'm pretty sure I'm not getting the two I ordered from Onsale. Since I promised one of these two my fiance as a wedding present.. I'm trying :p

FYI: When you get to the first Order Status screen in HP's store, there's a link 3 lines below the Username & Password box that reads 'HP Small & Medium Business Store order status'. Click on that link and it'll pull up a different login window. That's the one that worked for me.

I have no idea why HP feels the need to have multiple storefronts with different user credentials, but never-the-less, hope that helps.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for that! Looks like my order did go through, somewhat. Not trying any other sites until I get confirmation/cancelation on the 3 pending orders I have.
 
[quote name='MidnightMarauder74']Update on my order from BB.com on Sunday AM: Order status changed to Completed. Tracking shows that it's on the UPS truck for delivery today!!! :bouncy:[/QUOTE]

Just out of curiosity two quick questions:

Did you use the free shipping link?
What payment method did you use?
 
I just wanted to say thanks to the OP... I don't follow SD or any other sites usually, except for CAG (I can't stop buying games, the last thing I need to do is find deals on everything else :D ) so because of this, I had not heard about this price drop until I was browsing around on CAG Friday night.

The search to find a Touchpad was not easy... I stayed up until 5am Saturday morning waiting for sites to drop the price, but was not having any luck finding anything. I was back up at 8am checking sites again but still didn't catch any of the deals. So, I decided to take a little break and also go in store to see if I could find it anywhere... Staples had already sold out (but I'm assuming they didn't have many anyway) Best Buy took them down and put up the sign that they shipped them all back and Target never had them... So, I went back home, disappointed and without a Touchpad.

Even though I don't need another tablet, I just really wanted one, it was hard to pass up the price... I was so desperate at one point I even asked my parents friends back in Ohio to check Walmart and Staples there... let's just say they are not the most tech savvy people out there and it took me ten minutes just to get them to understand/write down the name of the device. By early Saturday afternoon I pretty much assumed I would never find one and was a little disappointed that not only I didn't have one, but that I had spent so much time looking for it and had nothing to show for it.

So, in one last attempt to try and find myself a touchpad I decided to talk with Amazon and just see what they said... after having several reps tell me that I could have the price adjusted if the item dropped before it entered the shipping process and then still have it adjusted after and if for some reason they couldn't adjust it I could just refuse delivery I decided to order from them. So, I placed my order for two Touchpad's right as Amazon sold out... I believe it was the last quantity Amazon had, other than the lightning deal because shortly after placing my order it went to third party sellers and I never saw it come back on after. So I continued to watch Amazon's site and never saw the price drop, was getting a little nervous about it, but just waited. Saturday night I saw some people say that they spoke with Amazon and they were processing their refunds. I decided to talk with Amazon again and was able to get confirmation that I did qualify for the refund, but I had to wait until it shipped ... I was just happy to know I would be getting the refund at that point.

By Sunday my order had shipped and they processed the refund and early Monday the refund was processed on my card. So, it was quite the adventure, but I have two Touchpad's in Kentucky and on their way to me, so I'm pretty excited... It was really cool to actually get in on one of these awesome deals... and if it weren't for the OP, I would have never known about it!
 
[quote name='HeSaveDave']I wish this thread would die and GTFO of the video game deals forum. Might as well have shoe deals here too. I use them when I play Wii.[/QUOTE]

Lmao @ shoe deals.

Well, Payless Shoes, often, has bogo which stacks with 20% off coupons found on the net.


On a different note, the mods are monitoring the HELL out of this thread. People can type the words shit, fuck, bitch, etc and it stays, but let someone try and get ya'll thinking, to TRY and calm you down, ZAPPP!!!!

Guess all the drama of 'hoarder' chat, making these pages longer, is a big pay day.

1. Yes, I used the free shipping link.
2. I used a CC.
 
What a roller coaster ride. I started reading this thread right after it was first created (it had maybe 5-6 replies?), and it's already almost 250 pages a few days later. Simply amazing. Hopefully my 32GB ships soon from HP; the 16GB I got for my parents is on its way.
 
[quote name='MidnightMarauder74']1. Yes, I used the free shipping link.

Much obliged, my friend. I paid with a debit card but used the free shipping link so I am still holding out hope after all the dead ends this weekend :D

FWIW, I noticed in the tracking info that the BB warehouse in my region is in Northern Cali. I live in So Cal. So that may be why I'm getting mine today.
 
BTW, have you checked your order status from BB.com? If it says Processing or Completed, I think you're good to go. Also, if you can no longer cancel the order, that's a good sign. Good luck!
