True or False Rumor - October 14th(16th) $75.00 (16)/$100.00(32)

Probably false considering you haven't given any information as to where they will be on sale for that price or your source of the rumor.

Found this LINK a few minutes ago. Not good news for those of us still looking.

I heard that "rumor" last week. But they wouldn't just make more of them to sell to employees, but just offer them to employees first before the sell them to the public.

They're making more to fulfill all of the online orders from the fire sale weekend. At least this is what I was told by HP Small & Medium Business.

This is what I was told yesterday as well. The Touchpad's have been taken off their website all together, now. At least, as of this morning they are not on there. I was told by a customer service rep to watch the website and what is left will be put on there. She did not know if other stores like BestBuy would be getting more or not.

Tiger Direct seems to think they'll be getting more within the next few weeks and is taking email addresses to be notified. HTH

Finally able to snag one from the OnSale.com/Amazon fiasco (apparently OnSale.com was able to get a bunch in for those who had their orders cancelled on Amazon). $149 for 32GB. Great deal. :D

Interesting. I had ordered from the orginal deal and didn't get one....Did you get a notice from Onsale or from amazon?

I'd like to hear more about OnSale also. I had three separate single-unit orders cancelled. If they now have them in stock, I'd like at least one of my orders honored. :mad:

After fishing around a bit on the internet, I found information indicating that onSale had apparently sent messages with links for ordering to customers whose Amazon orders from 8/21 were cancelled. I had three such orders but received no messages, so they must not have contacted all cancelled customers. It sounds like you clicked the link in the message and provided your original (cancelled) order number which was then validated to allow you to purchase a 32GB unit (limit one). The offer supposedly ends on 9/26; however, they are indicating on their website that the "promotion" is now over and no additional orders will be accepted. I feel like these people have now cheated me for a second time. You would think that with three orders, I would have received at least one notification. :mad:

Its official, just got my 32gb touchpad from onsale delivered, I was very unsure they would pull through but they did! Hurray!

That is great! I had ordered mine thru Barnes and Noble and I have not heard they are getting any more or offering to make it right like Onsale did.

Mine is out for delivery :D. I hope other Onsale/Amazon buyers will get theirs soon too.

And I got mine today thanks to your information! Thank you so much for helping me out with the proper information at OnSale. :)) You should get GottaDeal member of the year.

well I am disappointed that they raised the price

it's all supply and demand. If people hold out may be lowered again, I have no idea what the regular price was.

BOO for them I hope nobody falls for that, there are better tablets coming and prices will get more competitive. They can keep them was my first thought.....then they sold out :P LOL

well the fire sale had them at $99 for the 16gb and $149 for 32gb so $100 is a BIG difference....of course I think they retailed for $499 ish

If you honestly want one for that price ($100 more than what they were going for) just hop over to Amazon or even eBay and get one. Personally I hope no one with some sense falls for that. They were a great deal at $99 and $149, but for $250 ya could probably do better.
