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!

Have you tried clicking on the 2nd page for the deals forum then clicking the 1st page to refresh? That might do it[/QUOTE]

That seems like one solution. But I was wondering if it was a) user error b) a preference I was missing or c) just a shitty browser.
 
Between the Hurricane coming up the East Coast of the U.S...

The Earthquake in Washington D.C...

And the extremely low price on the HP Tablet...

I'm convinced these are signs of the Armageddon!

im beginning to think the touchstone won't be getting much cheaper then it already is. They're about impossible to find now outside of the 3rd party sellers who are trying to flip them. I tried several places online tonight to get one for the $40 asking price and didnt have any luck.

The bird one is the only one I didn't get. I almost did, but right as I was about to redeem the code, it occurred to me that I don't give half a crap about birds or listening to their calls, and I decided to leave the code available for someone out there who does.
 
[quote name='evildeadjedi']I hope they offer the free apps again since I was not updated last night so I missed the camera one. However, I got glimpse which I'm using now. I also got sparkle and big boss neither of which I have tested yet.[/QUOTE]

I hope they offer them again. I missed them as well. :(

I was a little upset about the app situation. I saw the blog today at work when I got home they were already sold out. I know they were free and all and I almost feel like I dont have the right to complain but I was a little frustrated.
 
Well it took forever but I finally got the software update to download and install.

the trick is to throw away the card when it says download failed.. throw away the card and re-load the update and it will continue the download from where it stopped.

I had no issues downloading when I got home but when I was trying on the work's wifi...my goodness was that horrible.
 
the touchstone just went back in stock at amazon with free shipping. Its $56, same price as HP's website. Since these were selling out I decided to go ahead and order one now instead of taking the chance that I won't be able to get one later.
 
I failed at a Touchpad case at 4 stores tonight. Walmart wouldn't price match anyone without a 'newspaper ad' (gargle my balls, walmart), even though their policy says "local price". Staples lied and said they had them in stock, when all they really had was Touchstones and Keyboards for $50 and $40, respectively. The BB douche laughed, then tried to sell me an iPad, despite the tracker saying they had them.

Oh well...not tonight!

sounds like an adventure, nice tries
 
Well I am officially getting at least one of my four. My Onsale was cancelled but my 3 from HP SMB are still in limbo. My HP academy should be on my doorstep by tuesday. I already got my paper.......
 
Would be nice to spawn off a new thread for people who already have a TouchPad to chat about apps/etc so those of us who are still trying to find one can just get deal-related news. It's hard to go through so many pages just to get caught up on what's going on.

check what you are using b/g/n. I had my router on 802.11n only and my touchpad wasn't connecting. Changed it to 802.11g and it connected.

I can't switch my router at work because I do not work in IT.

This dosen't happen with my iphone or my co workers android phone so it shouldn't happen with this thing..
 
Went to Walmart to get my 2 HP cases plus 1 Touchstone Charger matched. Used the Best Buy print outs from their site to match.

A few things to note (YMMV of course):

1) They would only match 1 of each. I told her ok I'll just come back another time to adjust or return the other one. My honesty was apparently hilarious.

2) I originally bought them from Walmart on the 24th. The Best Buy print out was from the 26th. She questioned whether Best Buy had them on sale on the 24th and I didnt understand what she had asked at first and she just kind of forgot about it. (Though yes they were on sale at BB on the 24th)

3) Stupidly, after the refund for one of each was complete I asked in passing if they price matched their own site. She said no as I figured. However, her manager overheard and said that as of a couple days ago they do match their own online prices. I had already processed the return and there was a line so I basically just let it go but I could have saved another $11 on the case/charger had I known. Maybe I'll go back in a day or two and give it a shot.

at this point it looks like im not getting one, but at the same time on the off chance i do i dont want the accessories to be sold out. :whee:

I wanted one so I could type papers using Google Doc, I would think if the demand is high they would easily make more...
 
I got all 3 accessories from BB online store came out to be $91...so $40 Touchstone, $35 keyboard, $16 for case..lol...also got one wireless keyboard from amazon when it was $40 but im returning it.
 
[quote name='Nagasami']So amazon lowered the HP wireless keyboard to 34.99[/QUOTE]

I got the case and touchstone coming but for some reason I can't bring myself to buy the keyboard. I don't think I'm going to use this thing as a pure laptop substitute so I should be ok with the virtual keyboard. If I need to do heavy typing I'll just jump on my laptop..

it is a good deal so thanks for the heads up
 
[quote name='Nagasami']I wanted one so I could type papers using Google Doc, I would think if the demand is high they would easily make more...[/QUOTE]

I think whats going on is that HP has orders that its going to try to fill so it will make only enough to fill those orders, then once those are gone were all SOL.
 
My laptop 17" so i cant carry to campus so the keyboard is needed if i wanna actually write paper, however im hoping they will release an Office app that doesnt require internet

Those are not a TP. All my devices worked too, but my TP. Just letting you know what fixed it for me. Even though this devices is suppose to support 802.11n
 
Man all I really want is one! Sucks to see people get 5+ just to flip :bomb:. Went to 3 different best buys in the IE this morning and they all confirmed that they were done getting shipment & i heard that basically there are no more in stock in Cali at all. Ordered from BN.com, howardcomputers.com, the HP SMB yet they are canceled (or in the process of getting canceled) & tried to get an order with Aaron's. Anyone out here in So. Cali still trying to get one? I guess my last resort is hoping that ebay prices go down under $200 or a fellow CAG can help me out! :bouncy:
