Nope, just scored. QTY 2 confirmed and ordered. I asked "are you sure you're not out of stock" and rep said "nope, you're good". Total time on hold maybe 100 minutes. She did say they were going quick and if I needed more to do so now. First question was "are you calling to order touchpad?"

Remember, the phone is your most powerful tool. While everybody else hung up, I stayed on hold.

GL with that.

Got an order through HP Small Business. Took about 15 minutes of refresh and retrying. Shows up in the order status now. Not sure if I'll get it but it's there. $128.xx after tax and shipping - 16GB model.

Sorry, but i dont think you will be getting it, from what i have seen HP is apologizing about the SMB site error and will be canceling in a few days, but it could just be slickdeals FUD and you could be in luck!

So I went to office max and they JUST announced (at least in my region- New England) that they can start selling them. I guess they've been told to tell customers they are out of stock, but now they will actually sell them at the $99 price. Just picked up 3!

I've been fighting with their website for the better part of two hours now.

Have it in my cart, but can't check out. Keeps erroring out.

Just keep trying guys, it will eventually go through. From what I've read, they don't have any and will cancel it. Not sure why they just don't pull it from the site. At this point, HP = morons for not pulling an item that they state will be cancelled from the order.

I have a log in, but I am about to give up. Just got a confirmation from Best Buy they will put them on sale tomorrow morning.

yay Best Buy's site had them on sale at ~7am this morning

got one for $110 in store pickup. i may cancel the HP Small business order if it does go though.

HP TOUCHPAD CLEARANCE AND RETURN POLICY

Due to HP's decision to discontinue its TouchPad product, Best Buy® will now provide clearance pricing for all TouchPad 16GB and 32GB models (SKUs 2842056, 2842092) regardless of previously advertised prices or promotions.

Best Buy will not accept customer returns or exchanges on clearance-priced TouchPads bought through any Best Buy channel.

Customers purchasing a TouchPad at clearance pricing will have a 1-year manufacturer's warranty, fulfilled directly through HP, not Best Buy.

Customers who purchased the 16GB or 32GB TouchPad after June 19 may come into the store to get either a full refund or a refund of the difference between the price they paid and the clearance price.

Quantities are strictly limited. Limit 1 per customer. Best Buy cannot guarantee availability of inventory at this pricing at any particular Best Buy location or channel.

I ordered one from BB just after 6:30 this morning. Did not have free shipping then but did later so I took a screenshot and will challenge shipping "if" it ships. I too will cancel the HP order (if possible) if the BB order ships.

BB order was $11 cheaper, even with shipping, than the HP one. :hmm:

Of course, Staples, at $49.99 with FREE shipping last night was the bomb deal (and I was sleeping when that popped in).
