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!

Oh good grief, I"ve had to place different orders at different places just because I cannot get a damn e-mail confirmation so I probably have like 5 minutes before this goes OOS. What to do... What to do...

Edit: Thanks for the tip everyone whether or not I bite dunno but thanks anyways!

Edit 2: I bit, might as well in before the rush lol hopefully my others will be cancelled as I expect them to be.
 
[quote name='bgame2']Hooray for me, I helped![/QUOTE]

I'd rate your help about a 5 out of 10... Maybe 6 if you can find the 32 GB. :)

I like how the first review is: August 21, 2011: I called B&G and asked if they will be honoring the price and they arent. Thats too bad.

edit: does this guy spell it Barnes and Gnoble?
 
Thanks for posting the BN link, was able to buy one for my BF and one for my mother with no hassle after my atrocious time this morning at BB.
 
Sorry to repost the same thing but I really need an answer to this. If anyone has any idea it would help out a lot. Thanks.

[quote name='IronZombie']Does anyone have any updates on what's going on with those of us who received the "order could not be processed" notifications from SMB? Right now I'm taking it as if the order was just ignored/cancelled but I don't want them to charge me and put me on backorder, I already ordered it on Amazon and it's got the "shipping soon" label on it. Do I need to call HP SMB to cancel the order or is it safe to assume it didn't even go through?[/QUOTE]
 
I also ordered one from Barnes & Noble but I am NOT going to be surprised if I get a cancellation e-mail. Been a few times I've found some sweet deals at B&N and never have I had one actually pan out.
 
[quote name='bgame2']Barnes and noble go go go !!!![/QUOTE]

Thanks so much for the heads up! :) Just ordered one for another family member (since they missed out on Walmart when I got mine).
 
what the hell - placed an order at B&N too. Might get stuck with an extra, but with 5% back on B&N credit card and 6% back from a program at work its not a bad deal.

Thanks a million. I've been helping my wife move into my apartment this weekend and have had no time to go Touchpad hunting. Wanted 32, but 16 will do. Maybe they'll cancel it (as BN does), but this is the closest I've been to getting one.
 
Glad I could help guys. Sorry about not posting an actual link immediately, I was trying to give everyone a leg up on slickdeals. Ironically, I was only stalking Barnes and Noble because someone in this thread mentioned a few hours ago that someone from slickdeals posted that a Barnes and Noble rep said that they would change their prices today.

...also, someone else saw Ferris pass out at 31 flavors last night.

For $10 FS + tax on verizon.

Thanks! Was looking for a cheap case. Saw a solid screen protector on amazon for $12, would be nice to have this thing completely protected for an extra 20 bucks.

:edit: just noticed it's for the ipad, will any ipad case do the trick?
 
To all that got in on the B&N action, I must sadly report it wont pan out based on no other information other than Ive been up every late every night since it all started and yet somehow missed out each time (I have one no hope in heck order floating out there)

Im afraid my placing an order has doomed you all. And for that, my brothers, I am truly sorry.

I'll forgive you this once, but my wallet's calling you mean things for wasting its money on junk I don't need.

As long as its a soft case and not a clip on one. The dimensions are surprisingly similar. If the case has a bit of wiggle room, or can be stretched a bit, it should work. The speaker ports won't line up, but everything else should be pretty close from what I can tell in pictures.

I don't think any iPad because will do because the first iPad didn't have a camera. The picture of the case looks odd because it looks like a first gen iPad but it has a hole for the camera.

Thanks. I grabbed a 16 gig incase the hp 32 falls through. I figure worst comes to worst I'll get my money back either way.

If you get a case that covers up all of the bezel, then yeah, the camera is obviously blocked. Many cases just cover a small portion around the bezel, and the camera should be unblocked. Read above for thoughts on buttons/ports.
 
[quote name='Kali']Soon everyone will have one!

Maybe this is a plan... part of a bigger plan... lol[/QUOTE]

Comes to think about it - you may be right.
 
My buddy got one from B&N. Thanks for the link, guys. As someone else posted, this thread is too funny/exciting/upsetting/cool/and a shit load more to quit keeping up on it.

I, for one, would like to thank you for the at bat. I did the SDeals thing as long as my soul could take. I seek respite here and whadda know, cag charity. :applause:

[quote name='bgame2']...also, someone else saw Ferris pass out at 31 flavors last night.[/QUOTE]
I seriously loled on that one and considering the HP-ell Ive been through the weekend, thats saying something.
 
[quote name='Ichigo1993']Ordered one earlier today on onSale, but was skeptical. Jumped on b&n just in case the onSale cancels.[/QUOTE]

Haha I did the same...exact...thing.

EDIT: Worse comes to worse, I can sell the onSale one to someone on here.
 
I didn't want one at first but since everyone is getting one I feel like I'm ithe only kid in gradeschool without a trapper keeper.

Got one at B&N for $115.xx after tax and shipping.
 
Did anyone else grimace when both tax AND shipping were applied. I can't remember the last time I had both. I think I had one of those epileptic seizures the warning screens are always going on about.
