My order had been saying the same thing, but I just got an email telling me it had been cancelled.

lol there are some A++ trolls in this slickdeals thread

8/24/2011 4:34:37 PM

I quit reading those threads. Started giving me a headache with all the idiots posting store numbers instead of just looking at that spreadsheet themselves

8/24/2011 4:41:10 PM

I aw the empty display in a rural wal-mart today and sulked for a few seconds.

I only really want one of these to have a nice comic book reader haha

8/24/2011 5:50:45 PM

i dont know what the hell is going on with my HP SMB order

probably will never be fulfilled

8/24/2011 6:05:35 PM

I hold out hope barnes and noble will send me one on accident

8/24/2011 6:19:00 PM

This porn machine will be easier to hide under my pillow

8/24/2011 6:19:30 PM

my Barnes and noble order finally switched to cancelled on the website yesterday

8/24/2011 6:26:30 PM

mine too

but still

8/24/2011 7:04:49 PM

Seems as though there's also a problem with the website not showing new posts in threads unless you manually refresh. weird.

oh hey drama

8/24/2011 7:25:45 PM

sooo i got an email saying my hp order got cancelled....then i got an email confirmation for the order?

8/24/2011 10:04:31 PM

ha yeah, not sure what the heck they're doing. I just got a confirmation for an order I placed yesterday using a backdoor link. Don't know if it'll get cancelled or not.

8/24/2011 10:07:14 PM

anybody heard rumors that HP sold way more than their inventory, which was exaggerated in the first place, and are now making more touchpads from the parts they still have to fulfill the orders?

8/24/2011 10:29:38 PM

Fedex says my expected arrival date with my shipping is Friday. So EXCITE! I had the 5-7 day option too haha

8/24/2011 10:39:10 PM

when did you manage to get your order in

8/24/2011 10:53:13 PM

STILL don't have a ship date on my HP order form Sunday.

8/24/2011 11:08:26 PM

Yeah, me neither.

8/24/2011 11:35:31 PM

My order was Friday at like 11:30pm when the deal was first really starting and the site still worked.

8/24/2011 11:41:18 PM

Mine was through HP small business.

8/24/2011 11:44:31 PM

My order was placed Friday about 9:30p on hp.com and I, too, chose the 5-7 day shipping, but they are due to be delivered tomorrow. Separate packages though for some reason.

8/25/2011 12:38:17 AM

In for 3 from the SMB link. Can't believe that one worked but....

...Sunday delivery date??? o_O wat?

8/25/2011 7:13:31 AM

My shipping notification from hp was sent today!

Wooohooo!

8/25/2011 7:47:19 AM

via slickdeals apparently...

8/25/2011 8:25:57 AM

Pardon my ignorance, us there a way to check when & which BB's are getting more TP's?

8/25/2011 8:31:50 AM

About the only way is to see if their trucks are coming today or tomorrow since the touchpads will most likely be on those if they're getting any. When I went Tuesday, the woman tried to say they weren't getting anymore so I asked when their next truck was coming and she said yesterday (wednesday) and that's when the Garner Best Buy got them.

8/25/2011 8:37:55 AM

haha so that's you on there? i'm just a lurker at this point.



the BB inventory checker website has never worked for me. is it a browser issue? all of the stores just show up blank

8/25/2011 8:40:26 AM

nah, that was just something that someone else posted in response to someone asking if they could help them out since he couldn't make it. The inventory tracker is wonky. Seems that one link will show different results than another. At one point yesterday, one of them showed every store in NC in stock.

8/25/2011 8:42:43 AM

if it's working for you, mind checking zipcode 28027? trying to see if there is any hope around my office this morning.

8/25/2011 8:45:21 AM

I can't find a link that works. Doesn't even list unavailable beside any of them

ok. Think I found one

Lists the capital blvd best buy as in stock. Only one that shows near ^ is GASTONIA NC
3054 E FRANKLIN BLVD, GASTONIA, NC 28056

8/25/2011 9:02:07 AM

I need to use my rewards on a folio case.

8/25/2011 9:07:29 AM

yeah just ordered one like http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Folio+Case+for+HP+TouchPad+Tablets+-+Black/2884119.p?id=1218362592326&skuId=2884119&st=touchpad&cp=1&lp=3 from amazon. The back of this damn thing is worse than the screen when it comes to finger prints. Maybe I'll call best buy and see if they have any touchpad.....cases.

8/25/2011 9:25:43 AM

eh, another post just said gone now. 20 of each unit

8/25/2011 9:27:42 AM

hmm...hp's site now says out of stock instead of coming soon for the touchpads. Guess they got tired of calls asking when "soon" was.

8/25/2011 9:49:54 AM

Lol....there were none at capital. Was 5th in line. I think they're just fucking with us now.

8/25/2011 10:09:05 AM

ha, the brier creek one just switched to showing In Store Only for availability. Looks like they updated the 16GB link to show unavailable at Capital but haven't updated the 32 yet.

^ hmm...

8/25/2011 10:16:36 AM

Is there an excel sheet that shows shipments like the one from Tuesday.

8/25/2011 10:38:07 AM

Not that I'm aware of. The guy that did it was taking store numbers from people there, looking them up in the system and posting the shipments in the spreadsheet but he's apparently mia now.

8/25/2011 10:41:36 AM

must have been before they actually opened (10 AM). the doors were shut and I got there at 9:45 and was standing there 5th in line. would've been nice to know they were selling stuff BEFORE opening hours.

8/25/2011 10:49:21 AM

in stock in Monroe, NC. damn, still too far from work

8/25/2011 11:01:20 AM

ha, the 16GB I ordered from HP now shows a expected shipment date of 8/27 and delivery 8/29. hmm...
