Any help?

Thanks!

I think you just have to keep checking and trying mine was directly though Amazon and my invoice stats $500 with a $400 discount total order $131 that with Big Lebowski on blu-ray! and upgraded shipping. I think there rotating sellers at that link some of them are going to match prices as well. So try try again.

Do you think I should add it to the cart or just keep refreshing the site?

Update: I spoke with a customer rep and they told me they are sold out. However, they are trying to get more stock in. Bummer :(

I would wait till you see the $100 16gb-$150 32gb price there might be some sellers trying to take advantage of the new hp touchpad price fever. As I sald mine clearly stats the $100 price.

You will be getting 2? You mean you haven't gotten those yet?

I live in Maryland and staples told me it was sold out on Virginia and most of Eastern states. Good luck finding one at 49 dollars. It is even harder than finding one for 99 dollars.

Yeah, I'm hoping on a dramatic comeback. :eek:

From what I have read no one actually got them for $49. The price went down after they sold out.

Interesting. That lends some hope to the idea that they may be preparing for a new round of availability. If they were sold and gone for good, why not remove them from the website, like Walmart and Target seem to have done - they are unavailable by searching. Maybe Staples will surprise us.
 
Monday morning has came and gone, and still, this afternoon, no one is showing available stock for the TouchPad. Looks like those that didn't get one missed out, huh?

If anybody is looking for some try barnes and nobles. I just picked up 4 more from there.

The physical store or the website? because most of those website orders are canceling.

Also, those Amazon affiliate orders yesterday are likely to be cancelled. They said they had hundreds in stock but took thousands of orders. Yikes.

I ordered this morning and have a shipping date of the 24th from B&N... they had better not cancel it ! ( it was "in processing" for about 3 hours though)

Well my CC was charged and my order says 'Shipping Soon' so I'll let you know.

Wait a few days, an HP employee's Twitter said that when the returns come back from brick and mortar stores they will be reselling them. You can sign up to be notified.

Where do you sign up on the site? I am looking at the link and I don't see anywhere to sign up for a notification. Maybe I am just missing it? :confused:

I apologise, it looks like they changed that link since this morning. But this was the tweet sent out about it. So I would keep an eye on that account.

Thanks :)

I've called just about everywhere around. Can't find a single one. I'd love to get one for my mom, but I doubt I'll be able to find one. :(
