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!

Looks like the pirates on Craigslists are starting to bring the prices down to HP prices, at least in the CA bay area, got listings for a 16g for 140, which is a lot better than 200+
 
I was so close of buying 32GB for $4 + shipping via amazon marketplace before correcting their price to $300. darn it!

LOL I just posted a warning on my local CL to warn people not to buy the 'overpriced' HP Touchpads the pricks are selling on there for $325 or so. Of course, by doing so I also mentioned that they're clearanced in stores and just increased the competition for these things.:bomb:

For those ordering the 50 packs of DVD+R's, don't forget to use the Free Entertainment shipping link: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Misc/null/pcmcat221900050000.c?id=pcmcat221900050000

That is, if you don't have the Silver Premier free shipping.

Sad thing is that for every smart price conscious consumer there's at least ten people who are... shall I best put it.... "a fool and their money soon parted" even after they are warned they are paying more then they should for something.

Also I'm going to predict that Newegg will have these on their Shell Shocker deal of the day sometime this week.

Hi, sorry I was gone all day, was only able to log in and out to see a few post via my phone. Maybe someone can help me..
I understand BB adjusted their price, since I bought 2 the day before the sale. I can come in for a price adjustment. But it does say limit 1 per customer. have any one have any experience with adjust 2 touchpad on 1 order?

Also, cannot find touchpad on Bestbuy.com anymore.
 
Heh, the number of HP pads on Ebay literally jumped from 4 pages worth to 14 in the last 24 hours. The ass-wipes are all asking 200+, too.

Believe me, if not for dumb people then eBay would either not exist or not have nearly as many auctions running in an average day. Then again, if that happened we wouldn't find quite as many deals as we do.:cry:

So I got to the payment info page on hps website for a couple of the tablets. Issue is that I dont want that charge to be sitting on my card unless they are actually going to ship, which is what I heard might be happening. Any suggestions as to what i should do?

I don't understand why Bestbuy.com updated the price if they have no intention of selling more online. Unless they counting inventory first, which I doubt.

The Best Buy situation is annoying. Some reports of them sending them back, some reports of them selling them. Can't search for the Touchpad on their site but every electronics news site says it is live. I just want one of these things!

lol can you imagine if we both show up and there's one left and we have one of those stare-downs like Peter Griffin and the giant chicken on Family Guy? And then a huge fight ensues. :twoguns:

Thanks! Just ordered 3 for in store pickup.

The thing is, I just ran out of burnable DVDs too!

This ought to last me for a while. :D
 
Kmart just upped the price for the 32 from $499 to $549. Wrong direction lol! They must know how hot these are right now, so they're probably trying to turn a profit not realizing that the Touchpad is bust. There's something screwy with Kmart and I'm surprised they didn't follow Sears.


I'm holding off on buying and price-adjusting since they may be sending them back too.

EDIT: The 16GB also went up on Kmart.

The home button is pretty close to the similar spot. Can't speak for the others. Depending on the type of material, its nothing a hole punch/xacto knife and some (small amounts of) superglue couldn't fix.
 
Waiting on the accessory discounts, because I am too scared to drop this at Starbucks, where this baby is born to shine!

Office Depot is accepting orders on both the 16GB at $129.99 and the 32GB at $149.99. They aren't available right now, it puts the item on backorder with no charge yet. I just did this and will cancel if I find one in the morning at Best Buy.
 
Too bad I don't live closer to my closest Mickey D's, so I could grab some free WiFi for this thing since my connection is craptacular and I disabled my wireless a while back n don't feel like fuckin' with getting it going again.:razz:
 
My Wal-Mart Instore Pick up order was canceled about 4 hours after I made the order yesterday at 4a.m.
Any one noticed staples selling the 16gig for $49???? Thats fuking crazy!!!
 
Damnit, Google shopping is showing that the Best Buy down the street from me has both the 16 & 32 in stock (all other area stores just say limited stock). I'm gonna have to stay up now in order to get over there when they open.
 
It is always a pain when BB does this where an item is in store but they won't let you reserve it. It is like they WANT 50 to show up at 10am and have 40 of them be disappointed...do they think people will just buy an iPad in a fit of RAGE?
 
Looks like the Best Buy I work at is out of stock of the 32Gb model. Looks like I'm going to Office Depot to get one. I hope I can make it back to work in time...

I was able to get one at BB tonight and I have one ordered for my sister through Office depot but until I get the shipping confirmation I am still trying to get one. I will feel too guilty if I end up with one and she gives me a hard time whenever I come over to the house with it. :)
 
[quote name='dafunkk12']Has anyone who ordered from HP's education site received a confirmation email? I ordered it last night before it went OOS and my status was already at "processing" less than an hour after completing the order. Seems like I'm set, but it'd be more reassuring to actually have that email sitting in my inbox. Guess I'll just have to wait til Monday or Tuesday when (fingers crossed) a shipment notification is sent.[/QUOTE]

Never got an email from them but my order has been moving through different phases
 
So the price drop should go into effect at Radio Shack tomorrow morning? Online it's stating that they're $499.99. I'm going to go in there before I go to work because I don't want Wal-Mart screwing me out of my money. The closest stores to me are showing limited stock. Does that mean I have a slight chance of getting one from them?

Ordered at OD around 1AM yesterday (damn, I've been up a long time today) and I've yet to receive an order cancellation email. I haven't heard much either besides the people who ordered way later than I did.
