Update 11:47am CST 08/23/11:

At this time all remaining TouchPad inventory is on its way to our stores and will be arriving throughout the week.  Best Buy will no longer be selling the Touchpad on BestBuy.com, or any other Best Buy channel other than our stores.  We cannot share specifics on the timing or quantity of these shipments.  As soon as a store receives shipment, it will be merchandised on the sales floor and will be processed on a first come first serve basis.

ordered mine from Bestbuy on Sunday morning.

received confirmation email, a couple hours later received an email saying my pad was backordered.

the next day i checked the status and it was saying processing, called BB cust. service and they too said it was processing.

received an email later in the afternoon on Monday saying it was shipped out of OH.

now it should be on its way here by Wed.

wish i could cancel my onSale order but its supposedly shipping soon.

and i also have a demo unit from radioshack that i will have to try to unlock soon.

their website says "out of stock". that means someone is at least alive and breathing there. i'm gonna hang on to that hope!
i now know what it feels like to be those cats on sunday calling around harassing all the retailers asking if they still have the space jams. smdh

edit: i just called my best buy, before it rang, the recorded message said "if you are calling about the hp touchpad, we have sold. we do not anticipate getting anymore inventory of that product". i know who's voice it is too. those dudes there are so shady...acting like theyre apple employees when you walk in their cpu section.

if you're calling to check on your order, it may be a waste of time. this lady from hp went from 400 followers on sat, to 4000 on sunday to 12000 on tuesday.

Home and home office store and HP Academy - part of the same store, & inventory. When Home & Home Office gets more so will HPA. No more SMB.

just read this on slickdeals,

"Be aware because they tried to be slick saying they been sold out since sunday, and I seen a best employee selling two to someone in the video game section register. I told the General Manager this, and then he went to the back and grabbed a 32 gb for me.

Location: Chicago KIMBALL and Belmont Best Buy at approx 2pm

I will post a pic of the receipt when I get done eating lunch."

i went to three walmarts, two targets, and 1 best buy this morning (to the small town stores outside of charlotte) asking if any of them got a new shipment in. target did a good job of showing the product never existed. all the walmarts have an empty spot. and the best buy jerks can spot me from a mile away with their smirks. odd thing is, the walmart folks were the friendliest to me. one even told me where i might have a better chance (but i ain't trying to drive down to rock hill, sc).
