Best Buy has been shipping them back out to stores and they will be showing up throughout the week.

Just got a notice from BB that they are not shipping online orders and won't be getting anymore, ah well!
|
Man that sucks if BB doesn't get anymore. Maybe Someone will come thru and hook me up
|
Bust Buy is sending them all back to the stores. Some of the stores have already started receiving them and have also already sold out of them. Some stores have yet to get them, so there is still a chance that a store near you still hasn't gotten their shipment yet.
HPs online store changed today from out of stock to coming soon. http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/sh.../FY11/TouchPad This Slickdeals thread is still posting updates as they get them. Lots of info here: http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3220862 |
Got mine hooked up and rolling, typing on it right now.
I must say this thing is pretty damn neat, and is definitely worth $150 for a 32gb. I would never pay $500-600 for one of these or an ipad, although I did pay $300 for an ipod touch. But that little bastard was worth it in terms of portability/iphone replacement. It definitely is unique to a laptop a and I always thought why buy an ipad when you can buy a laptop but it is definitely different. Perfect for laying in bed. |

I'm typing from mine right now too.
Hulu Plus works on it quite nicely, so that's a big plus...until the decide to block the user agent. :1orglaugh Go in to the settings and do the Software Update. It fixes a few things, speeds a few others up and makes the keyboard even better than it already is. |
Picked up 2 32 gigs tonight at Best Buy... They said they got 50 of each in and would be getting more They only allowed 1 per customer but saw someone I knew who "bought" the 2nd one.
|
Picked up 7 myself been playing with one and its nice, can see myself using it quite abit for business and personal.
People went pretty crazy for them over here and sold out within the hour, 400 person lines in the city stores etc..people are playing a massive premium for them on ebay. Might keep some of them for when android works. |
Could this be a media stunt? A quite expensive media stunt to get market share on the tablet market?

Who knows really. We ended up with 7 of them, too. Keeping one for each of us and one each for two of our kids. One went to my mom and the other two are going to be Christmas presents. |
Here's a link for anyone who got one and uses a Mac. There are a bunch of homebrew patches that you can make use of that really make this run a little bit better. Once you get everything set up, it takes a few minutes to do:

I bought the other three at BJs, before they marked them down and they got credited once they dropped the price. I've also had a few orders cancelled, when I got in late on some smaller shops. I got a bunch of others from BJs as well, but they were for my brother in law. |

I want one of those so freaking bad I can taste it

Jumping from 1.5 to 1.7 was VERY noticeable. I am thinking of putting a video together of stock, 1.5 and 1.9 for comparison. |
Those who got one of these for $99 & $149 got amazing deals. The IPS screen alone is worth $100.
I think it's funny they're selling for $300+ on ebay though. Since I wasn't in the market for a tablet before this firesale I refuse to spend a dime over 99 or 149, haha. |
Futureshop and best buy are sending out back orders, got an email today saying my 32 db has been shipped!
|
does anybody do shipping to Australia
|
Is "touchpad" short for "touchy douchebag"??

There's gonna be a hit to battery life for sure, but there is no significant rise in temp.
|
Have fun with these.
