Hp Touchpad Firesale
- Thread starter CloneBack
- Start date
No one has them available as of 9am this morning; all sites have been sold out last night or early this morning...
There will likely be additional drops on sites this week, especially HP that says they will have more in stock. However, there is already a waiting list on HP's site and that will likely be very long... I'll try and post something here if I ever see them go down online somewhere!

I want to get in on this deal so badly. Hopefully the conversion to android will be available asap.
Let me know what you find out from onSale... I was thinking about calling them this afternoon if I hadn't seen any change in status...
I couldn't believe all of the reviews the TouchPad was getting from people who had just bought them, hadn't received them yet, just got the order to go through and they were giving out 5-stars! Must have thought it was a review to the seller like on ebay! :twitcy:
Why is that? My orders are still shipping soon, but haven't seen anything to lead me to believe they won't be shipped.
someone posted on slickdeals that on the phone, the onsale rep said their actual inventory (in the 100's) was substantially lower than the number ordered through amazon; they were getting ready to send out mass cancellations
of course, the poster could have been completely full of it as well
You can't even get through to B&N Customer Service due to their high call volume the explicitly say is due to the HP TouchPad... If my order through them gets cancelled I will be very angry, as there is no reason they should have went over their inventory..
MY BN order was cancelled and I suspect my onSale (amazon) order will be as well. Best bet might be to wait until HP's online store has more in stock later in the week.

When did you order through B&N? I haven't received anything yet besides the order confirmation.
It is now being rumored that anyone who purchased through OnSale (Amazon) that ordered before 4pm should have no problem. Those after 4pm are currently expected to be on back-order and are not guaranteed...
I really hate all of this crap that goes on with big sales like this, is it really that hard to keep true inventory and not over sell? I understand a few or even a few dozen in these cases, but mass 100s or 1000s?

If they can convert it to Droid with a 3rd party app, that would be great.

Just saw this on the HP site. Looks like if you got your order to go through there you're good to go.

Well shoot, if I end up getting a cancellation email from Barnes and Nobles, is anyone who bought extras at the store willing to part with one for a resonable price?
I am reading, maybe incorrectly, that HP is working with the retailers so that they make good on their commitment. So the BN and Onsale groups should be able to honor their sales with the help of HP. I am hearing they may give some pre sale buyers part of their money back (after Jun 16 or so).
