Hp Touchpad Firesale

Just called the Best Buy in Ankeny, lady said they got some in a little bit ago off the truck and they're at least 75 people in line for them when they release them and she said they don't have anywhere near that many. Crazy!
 
I wonder where we will all be in two weeks.

1. Second and final wave is as big of the first, causes hp.com to bog down, but not other online retailers, because they wont get any shipments

2. Mad rushes at Best Buys continue for 1 week, black friday continues.

3. Ebay hovers around $180-200 for 16 gig.

Just my guesses, as the hardware is a great deal at 100 and people are willing to eat another 100 just to get a good deal.

I wouldnt even care if it lost all web support- it still would make a nice video player for long trips.
 
I'm batting about 0 for 50... even got a cancellation from HP for an order i didn't think went through (the link that automatically added it to your cart).

paraphrased hp email: "soo we know you were taking advantage of our site, since there's no way you should have been able to submit an order on monday or tuesday since we were sold out, so your order is definitely going to be cancelled. peace"
 
Got a cancellation email earlier for the onsale via amazon one. Too good to be true...

Yep, me too, had two orders and both cancelled...oh well nothing you can do, but I see many people on their facebook are just ******...really? What did you expect they oversold, everyone and their mom wanted one and they didn't have enough. so it goes
 
Got my cancellation notice as well from Onsale. I'm a little disappointed that it took them 4 days to cancel my order. On top of that my Barnes and Noble order go axed as well.
 
I've got a dilemma, my CDW rep was able to get me two additional touchpads. One I am giving to my mom, but what should I do with second? Family member or a friend?

sent from my HP Touchpad

How about a fellow Cyclone fan? PM a price if you are interested. :cool:
 
I ordered this folio to keep it in: Set Your Location . People say it works pretty well for the Touchpad.

Want to explain to us who still in the "hope and pray that I get one" mode how this works. I understand that the Touchpad does not have a GPS so if you want to position yourself on a map it is problematic. Is this a way around that? How does it work?

I usually like URLs autonaming themselves on the board. It obviously didn't work well here. :)
 
Just saw the note on HP's website for the Touchpad went from something yesterday like "more coming soon" to "out of stock" again.

Rumor is Best Buy might not be totally done getting a few in. Maybe a few more either later this week or early next.
 
My BN order from 7am Monday got canceled. Got the email yesterday. Like everyone else, not surprised. Ya try to jump on a deal but when your a day or two later than most thats what happens. I had no real need for one but for that price it would have been nice.
