Update 2: Did you order a Touchpad from OnSale via Amazon when this deal was running on 08/21 and have your order canceled? You can now purchase a 32GB Touchpad for $149.99 plus tax and shipping via this link if you provide your order number that was cancelled! Just look back at your original order email or cancellation email to find your order number. Regardless of if you purchased the 16GB or 32GB you can only order the 32GB with this offer nd only 1 can be purchased.

169.58 with tax in ny
@different:
Yup, NY is one of those 5 special states that pay tax on Amazon. Thank your state government for that. Or ship it to another state.
Is this a crazy cheap price or I’m missing something?
thanx dan
100 dollars for the 16gb version
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0056UOUC8/?tag=cl03f-20
thanks, i was looking for a store that matched bestbuys price that wasnt sold out yet
@Chaim:
It was $499.99 when released less than 2 months ago, but HP has decided to exit the entire WebOS phone and tablet business and they’re even looking to sell off their entire computer business, so its being clearanced out.
Does this run on android? Does it have the same apps as the iphone available
Why is this selling for over $300 on ebay? Is it true you can sell it back to HP for full price?
You can get the 16GB for $99 FYI
A few questions:
First of all, does this run on android or not? if not, then what OS does it run on? iphone?
Secondly, if this is being discontinued does it make it a bad buy?
also dan, are you buying this?
Just ordered-deal of the year-don’t wait before it sells out!
Why would hp offer tobuy it bak at full price if they are the ones who lowered the prices? lol
@Watcher:
It runs Palm WebOS 3.0
@Watcher:
Yup, bought 1 of each, at these prices it’s hard to pass up!
Hey great site,
so if i buy this with AMEX, like Starwood that I know u love Dan… will I get 2 yrs warranty?
What is the shipping discount and how do I get that?
Any hints to best way to service this, really bad experience with HPs in past
thanks
DAN DOES THE AMEX PLATINUM OFFER EXTENDED WARRANTY?
Sweet! Now THIS is a deal! Thanks Dan.
@me:
-You will get extended warranty with Starwood.
-If you order multiple devices then the shipping is automatically discounted.
@a:
Yes, but bear in mind that when you close a card you lose all the benefits (purchase/theft protection, loss protection on the plat, extended warranty, return protection, etc.)
@Frank:
Your welcome!
any idea wher i can get discounted accseories too?
Thanks Dan! so does Palm WebOS 3.0 offer many of the main apps that android has??
Also, in terms of security when traveling in airports does this need to be shlepped out of the bag and scanned separately like laptops? (I hate doing that)
@Watcher:
Get a bag that you don’t have to open even for a laptop. It’s the best thing since sliced bread!
This is also very interesting…a team making that’s making Android OS available on the TouchPad!

Additionally, does anyone know if this is good gor looking at word and excel docs?
Just an FYI this deal won’t last long. It already sold out at HP, Best buy, office max, etc.
WOW!! im already droooling!!! ok, just one last question: should i buy it on my starwood (warranty) or CO (price protection)
@Watcher:
Why do you need price protection? It’s not going lower than this!
Tx Dan!
I just got 3
Thanks i just bought them… but why did they charge me $35 bucks tax?? 🙁
And also, they didnt combine shipping for different models. so i bought 2×16 GB and 1 32 GB and total was 395.95
Now i’m thinkin of just getting 3 of the 16 GB, because i really dont think i’ll need the 32 GB (i have a laptop with tons of memory!)
Thanks again, Dan!
just bought 5. thanks.
@Watcher:
See comment 2.
@sam:
Flipping them on ebay for a profit?
Its weird because i’m from illinois, which is not listed as the 5 states that collect taxes.. am i missing something??
I couldn’t help myself. I bought just bought 2 more to give away as birthday/christmas gifts. You are my hero of the day Dan! And my brother thanks u as well (his birthday is next month).
Looks like their all sold out of the 16 GB ones
Just got 1. Had to pay 168.88 with tax +shipping in CA. Sent the link to others in NY who paid similar.

Thanks to living social this was free!

The link for the 32gb says its $499…

@Dan: you got it 🙂 maybe i’ll keep one though. link is dead.

Thanks Dan
Got one for 116
I’m so greedy. I got three and now i want more! But they went up in price/no longer available
Check out DansDeals forums to still get a $99 Touchpad!!!!!!!!!! It shows the link in the deals page
@Avi:
What was livingsocials deal?
@Frank:
I’m not seeing it for $99
@do
This was the link i used about 5 minutes ago to just buy 2 more (i’m in for 5 total now):
http://www.costcentral.com/proddetail/HP_TouchPad_Tablet/FB454UTABA/11394713/
The website is slow (probably due to heavy traffic) so you will have to keep refreshing until u get through. They say they have about 7,000 left in stock.
cant get past shopping card
How do you know this costcentral.com site is real and not a scam? Anyone?
@Ben
I had never heard of them prior to my order. I purchased with my Amex that has fraud prevention so i feel comfortable. This may make u feel better about the costplus company:
http://www.resellerratings.com/store/view/Cost_Central/sort/date/page/1
For anyone who doesn’t get one now I am pretty sure there will be plenty at a great price on Ebay soon – give it a few days! Plus I bet a few more places here and there will pop up online with availability in the next week
@Frank:
The site won’t load
@Frank:
Site loads but says that the page you’ve requested is unavailable. Any idea of the $99 deal is still available? and how can i get one? thanks
They just pulled the offer. I wonder if those that got through will be cancelled (mine included).
@Avi:
Wat was the deal on ls?
Did anyone who bought from amazon got shipping confirmation (tracking number) yet? Mine still shows shipping soon..I am concern that Amazon(reseller) might have oversold these. Any thoughts?
@Frank: Any e-mails come through about them shipping yours? After reading your post I bought one off cost central as well… but still nothing about shipping…. I just bought a case for it too so wanted to make sure they’re still planning on shipping….
deal is dead on both the 16gb & 32gb
I got email from Amazon that order was cancelled. Anyone else get that?
I got canceled a few minutes ago
also got cancelled
They canceled mine too and I am LIVID> I had several opportunities to buy elsewhere but I usually like Amazon. They’re supposed to have more on the way. Anyone know when?
me 2
Any recourse with amazon, if they accepted and then subsequently CANCELLED the order?
First, thanks to Dansdeals for publicizing this deal. However, HP’s recorded message says any orders before 4a.m. Monday morning will be honored. Dan, your link for the sale went through Amazon. In the future, post a link directly to the manufacturer’s website. This is a lesson to all of us when taking advantage of such offers in the future. My order would have been honored had you done that.
@Steve:
J’Accuse!
But perhaps before accusing you should first learn the facts…http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/15792
can i still get this somewhere?
Why by something that will no be supported?
No more app development, upgrades, patches, bug fixes…might be a great price…but wonder why they are selling it? It is like selling products that are about to expire (or have expired)
Thought I’d get in on this deal finally…dooh.., let us know if you hear of a way to get one if you didn’t already order from them
Just ordered one. Hope it comes this time!
The site says that the item is no longer available. Oh well. Thanks Dan
Ordered:-)
Dan you rock!!!
@yossi:

@yossi:

@Frank: frank il buy one off you?
@danny: how did you get it the deal is dead
I got one. I have $200 in Amazon gift cards so originally i was planning on using them but with this promo the checkout is not thru amazon rather thru OnSAle… to bad i had to pay for them.
i don’t know y i can’t find it. and everybody else can. 🙁
got one! thanx dan and bubbles
i cant get it can anyone post how thay got it it comes up by me for over $200
Interesting to note….BTW THANKS for this!
I had bought the 16gb but when I put in my order # it let me get the 32 gb (In fact I could only get the 32gb )
@hershi: i think all the guys that are getting it are those who had ordered it and got an cancellation number
did anyone get it plain by ordering it today?
no fix for the barnes and noble fiasco, I see
If you have an extra code and wont use it can I have it?
just got one
apparently it only works if you ordered one earlier and got cancelled out
just ordered mine.
thanks dan
If anyone has a cancelled order number and doesnt want to use it, can you please email it to me so that I can get the price? gobilly65@yahoo.com and post here that you emailed me. Thanks!
The total cost will be around 170 so if you do not plan on buying it please share your code thanks.
anyone looking to buy one from me?
@yoel
which one and for how much?
i’m still looking for one. My wife is _still_ asking me about this.
@richard
I just ordered the 32gb for someone and found out they don’t want it, so I’m looking to sell it
I’ll buy one, or if someone who doesn’t plan on using their code can email it, I would REALLY appreciate it. benn000@live.com
Anyone have an extra cancellation code they can send me. ka250@aol.com
thanking you in advance

I ordered two from amazon. Anyone know if the second code would work? or Can i only use one per email address
Same here! I’m interested in a 32gb.
