HP touchpad tablet $99

[Syran]

Got the order processed at CDW - it was after the stock was changed to "call" - still no confirmation e-mail or any charge on my credit card, so no clue if it actually worked.

Mine is listed as shipped with a UPS tracking number. Placed order at 11:36am w/ CDW.

Darn it! So I missed it too? Anyone try a B&M store like Walmart today?

Staples and Wallyworld with both OOS in Middletown, OH.

Apparently they are getting slammed. Can't get to their site.

This is pretty much a dead deal and sold out every where. Only unit available will be those being sold on ebay by idiots that bought 10+ of them in hopes or reselling them for 200-400 a pop. The don't realize that the demand was only this high for these tablets BECAUSE of the $99 price. I wouldn't pay anything more than that for a 16GB version of this tablet personally.

So to those that got one; Congrats. To those that didn't; Better luck next time.

[SilentVixen]

Oh well, I just wanted one and I ordered from Barnes and Noble yesterday. I hope they actually send it.

 

[Doboji]

Thats what I get for posting the CC availability on SD... jesus... that place is dangerous!

 

[Wyndru]

I always miss out on great deals like this. Oh well.

Just got a confirmation email from CDW for 2 (a 16gb and a 32GB).
I live in Chicago area so they are (supposedly) going to deliver them tomorrow.
No charges on CC yet

Just received my tracking number for the BestBuy order. Placed at 6:43 yesterday morning!! Now I'll cancel my HP order (if it doesn't cancel itself)!

They will easily sell on ebay.

They told me they sold out "a long time ago" when I called :\

Yeah, I heard that on another forum. Just playin the game ( in case they screw up). Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky.

Stilling crossing my fingers that my B&N order goes through.

Been all day without it changing from showing it'll ship on the 24th.

Placed my Best Buy order at around 8 AM yesterday and haven't heard anything. I thought a couple of posters on Slickdeals said they placed theirs later than mine and had already received ship confirmation. I guess I'm probably screwed.

Have you checked your order status? If it states to be shipped in 0 or 1 days, you're golden!

had to go to the extreme and check all touchpad sellers from google shopping lists and boy every store is sold out even the unheard-of stores looks i wont have any contingency for my orders that are probably doomed for cancellation. Try to call
HP SMB where i made my first order while the deal was fresh and i can never get ahold of them over phone, live chat is always blocked

Doubt it. It's not exactly a popular product. Which is why it wasn't selling at all until this weekend. If it wasn't for the massive price drop no one would be buying one of these. Sure there might be a few suckers who pay $200+ on ebay for one of these in the next couple of weeks, but most will realize they missed the deal and move on with the rest of their lives after they realize they probably didn't need a tablet in the first place.

Just got a cancellation notice from CDW and I was in pretty early on that one. Bummer, oh well.

 

[mikeford]

I was surprised to see half a dozen with bids on 8/22 sold on ebay for around $250. Guessing these people are buying a tablet to get better access to the internet.

It does state 0 or 1 days still, but I assumed that is because they haven't cancelled it yet.
