HP touchpad, yes the ones with WebOS which was just dropped by HP is going on sale tomorrow (8/20) for $99 for the 16GB and $150 for the 32GB version, this is a one time only price and will end once supplies are out. HP reps have been reported as saying it will start at 7AM EST. Bestbuy Canada already has this price for you northern folk.
Current way to get it to work
Thanks Adam8281!
UPDATE: both the 32GB and 16GB are now OOS from HP, however there are reports of B&M stores going live with this price tomorrow morning however YMMV
Update 2: Live for 129.99 and 149.99 at officedepot.
Office Depot is now OOS as of 4:55AM EST.
Update 3: walmart pricing is up, in store pickup ONLY!!! hurry now.
For anyone still looking for a 100 dollar tablet, i suggest going to the HP site and printing out a screenshot with the $99.99 price for your local Fry's (who do internet price matching now) but as always YMMV
Current rumor is fry's are shipping their stock back to HP and will not sell to anyone.

I just bought it 5 minutes ago, for $85 ($15 came off with the coupon save15HP). Here's the trick:
Log into HP either via an academic login or EPP
Then INSTEAD OF SEARCHING THE HP WEBSITE, click one of these 2 links:
16GB
32 GB
Add to cart and buy
When I just searched the HP website for the Touchpad (even while logged in with EPP or academic), it didn't return results with the low price. However, when I used the above links AFTER ALREADY BEING LOGGED IN TO EPP, then I got the $99 price.
ps. I don't know what the magic juju is with the above links that makes them work. All I know is they were posted on Slickdeals, I clicked them, it worked, and I bought a Touchpad for $85.
