HP Touchpad for $99/$149

[knnyngo]

My bank account was charged already for the amazon order I placed an hour ago

Good luck to me and the others waiting for one.

Hype

what hype? if all retailers are going to lower the price

  

Touchpad all of a sudden became the new iPad. The new "must have" item. Earlier today I saw the 16GBs going for $250+
People seem to either not know that more are coming for 99 or simply just don't care and want one to have one. Especially since pretty much no one wanted one like last Tuesday when they were selling for like $300 via HP.

People paying more than 99, because they're figuring even if they shell out 200, they're still getting a deal.

That and not wanting to deal with the hassle of refreshing pages, hope to get through, place an order, and hope it ships.

Amazon just took the money out of my account for ONE of my TWO orders.

Kinda getting excited.  

EDIT: Just changed one of the orders from "not yet shipped" to "shipping soon".

I'm in for 9 total (2 32's and 7 16's). I'm going to hold off on listing the other 3 16's I haven't sold yet, and I might keep one of the 32's, we'll see.

 

[creekshow]

Money taken out of my acct for both orders from onsale. I guess thats a good sign

 

[sneakaprince]

So will you be selling 8 of the 9? And keep one for yourself?

I've been looking at review videos on YouTube, and for $99, it is not bad. 

I purchased two strictly to sell one and make a little profit to help cover the cost of the one I will be keeping.

alright thanks dude...yea, I suppose for the price, it's probably the best option available...plus, I'd pretty much use it for the basics, nothing too crazy.

I'd re-sell ASAP, considering a lot of people are trying to flip them, flooding the market, and, retailers are gonna sell more as they get more/retailers price dropping their prices to 99/149

 

[katiejade4]

Oh, nevermind. My account was charged for both the touchpads that I ordered

YAYYY, you guys! We did it!

 

[mr jordan04]

How do these compare to iPads?

 

[fundamental21ticket]

I buy a lot of stuff from Amazon and they ONLY take the money out of your account when the items ships. Otherwise you'll see "Pending" on the transaction until the product ships with a tracking number provided.

 

[dtb00201]

Thanks for the Amazon link. I have a funny feeling it will be canceled, but I figured it was worth a shot.

iPad>>>>TouchPad

Touchpad good for web browsing, watching video, playing music, checking email. 
Serious lack of apps on Touchpad.
Value wise however imo Touchpad>>>>iPad.

 

[donttalkitlivit]

any other links besides the amazon ones???  I want to make sure I get one. 

 

[shoedinidc]

Hope hp ships mine tomorrow

I hope everybody who has been hunting one down gets one.

I can't wait to see what developers do..I need some touchdroid in my life now.

I heard that they work a lot smoother than the iPads and the screen and everything is nice. Other than that, it's a pretty decent tablet. I wouldn't bother trying to compare it to an iPad though.

 

[the notorious bum]

Both my CC were charged

 

[Hahahaha]

I bought one off OnSale 32GB, hopefully it works

 

[Mark Antony]

Alright got charged too, good. This isn't an ipad/xoom/transformer, but it's still probably the 5th best tablet out now. For an ebook/comic reader, couch surfing, media player, skype device, for about 100, i don't think you can go wrong.
