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!

I'm waiting out side of Fashion Bug right now, oddly enough nobody is here waiting for these things.

I might have missed it but what tracker are you using? I must have missed a page or forty the way this thread moves.
 
A Best Buy near me has some. I wonder if I should go check it out for the hell of it. Maybe bring my Touchpad to waste time on while I wait in line.

I am not sure if people have already written this but the promo codes for the 6 free app on the HP Blog are no good (except the Kung Fu Panda one). Each one says the max number of codes had been used. That did not take long.
 
Ironic... My TP should get to my house today... and now my local BB is showing "In Store Only" for the 16 and 32 GB pads... DO I want to wait for an extra one this morning or not???? Hmmmm...

If I had the luxury of picking up extras I certainly would. It would make for some interesting trades with other CAGS... quite possibly a great way to add to my collections while helping out others

Do it. That's what I did, though I was wishing they had the 16gb model in stock instead of the 32gb when I got to my local BB cuz I just didn't feel like paying the extra $50 for the bigger one.

Either way, I got one of the last 7 they had in stock of the 32gb yesterday.;)

Extra COD: BO Prestige Editions? Me too.;) But I may actually finally look into sending the RC cars from the opened ones to Trucks For Troops, that is assuming I can just drop them off at the local military recruiting office.

That big boss game is way fun. That sucks that the codes are used up,though. 2why openly offer the whole world something you don't have enough of?
 
It's frustrating - the closest store to me that has stock has the distance that I would go, but I would be seriously mad if I got there and then they didn't a) didn't have any or b) already had a huge line.

The one around me is only 10 minutes from my work, but I don't really feel like standing in line for a long time. Plus, I have court for the delinquent that stole a bunch of stuff from my wife's vehicle today at 1... So I would only be able to check at Open. It really hinges on whether my wife wants one or not.

that rage happened to me yesterday. My "nearest" was an hour and a half drive plus a 20 minute wait outside only to find out they gave out tickets for them the night before. Of course when I called the day before and asked about tickets they said they weren't going to do that and it was first come first serve.
 
Last "tech support" post, I promise:
- If you're wondering about what order to do the tweaks/overclocking in, below is how I did it and everything went smoothly:
1. Update WebOS
2. Do the logging hack (need to use skype to access the dialer)
3. Do the steps to load precentral and download the two logging minimizers
4. Do the steps to overclock
I'm sorry if people are having trouble after employing those hacks, but honestly, my touchpad actually got more stable and had less connection type errors after I did them. What originally felt sluggish and a bit wonky now feels speedy and efficient. BTW, the overclock I did was to 1.5, not the 1.7 that apparently is also out there.

P.S. A hard reset doesn't "restore" the system to it's original state. So, if you had problems after the hacks, did a hard restore, and it all runs smoothly, congratulations, the hacks worked.

Richard Kerris, a big whig at HP webOS division (Palm) tweeted yesterday that the editable version of quick office is in QA and could be out within a week.

Only kalemsoft player will and that's in the app catalog.

[quote name='mcdaking84']if you remove preware, do all the tweaks get removed?[/QUOTE]
No. Preware is just an underground app catalog built by the homebrew community and even lightly supported by HP (quite a difference from Apple or Google).

Can someone plz post the BB tracker link? I tried the link on the first page and put in model #'s, not found. Unless I'm looking at the wrong one. Thx
 
ARgh,

I really want the HP Touchpad case but Walmart has it for 19.99 online but in the store they want 39.99 and they won't price match walmart.com
 
They pretty much get an unpaid item strike, that's it.

Only problem is seller is going to have to get a "cancel transaction" agreement with the buyer to avoid a $10,000 Final Value Fee.

Thanks. I'd be pretty shocked/jealous if the seller actually got over 90 thousand for a picture lol.
