WARIO thank you!

I finally got one DD

 

[Raistlin]

Out of curiosity ... anyone have recommendations for peripherals?

I expect they'll start dropping soon enough as well.

I would avatar quote you if still allowed

lol

Goddamn that OnSale item listing is so shady, why is it called Smartbuy Touchpad? What have I done.

 

[nataku]

I'm kidding, that's what everyone is afraid of in the SD thread though. I'm sure it's the real deal

I hope so.

I had this one delivered to my sister in Houston. She's all excited about it and will be pissed if it's fake. Especially since she had me use her card to pay for it.

 

[ToxicAdam]

I almost bought the Onsale deal. I'm just going to put the money towards a laptop instead.

 

[Chorazin]

Checked our order with HP SB, shows no problems and an estimated delivery for this week. Hopefully this means we're all good.

 

[Londa]

Well I ordered one from Onsale too. Hopefully, it's not a knockoff and actually ships heh.

me too

we are Onsale touchpad sisters (just run with it) ;D

 

[Erekiddo]

My card was charged, says "Shipping Soon"

 

[AZ Greg]

I always feel so bad when GAF hopes are dashed.

Hopefully they go through.

I would never trust estimated shipping date through HP, regardless of what you order. It's almost always wrong.

I wouldn't be surprised if they shipped within the next couple days, though.

EVERYONE GETS A TOUCHPAD

This isn't a new amazon seller lol I don't think you need to worry.

It says HP in other places. Be confident my friend.

 

[Jesus Carbomb]

I'm looking through OnSale's Amazon storefront and they have all kinds of home electronics for sale, including some of the more popular tablets (eeePad, SGT, Xoom, etc)

If these guys are in the business of selling Chinese knockoffs than they're doing a hell of a job pulling this shit off.

 

[andylsun]

16GB ordered through Amazon from onsale - Amazon's buyer protection looks pretty solid, so let's see what happens. I'm hoping for a real Touchpad, but it could be a box of rocks.... FB454UT is the right model number for the 16GB.

Good move, now you play solitaire, grandpa.

onSale has plenty of good reviews through their Google listing:

My HB SB order also says smart buy in the item description. I think "smart buy" = firesale, no refunds.

 

[Zeth]

Wario, where do you get the numbers?

 

[Lebron]

me too

we are Onsale touchpad sisters (just run with it) ;D

As long as we're both aware I'm the better looking one.

Sure I keep my order or cancel it? people are now saying its a troll. lol

A troll so they snatch up your canceled one.

FB454UT#ABA is the correct item # as it is on the listing.

 

[nataku]

I'm wondering this as well. What's a smartbuy touchpad?

EDIT: Shipping Soon. Well, at least I get the legit one and my sister gets the knockoff.

 

[gkryhewy]

ahhhh

Yes. To confirm, this is my item description from HP:

"FB454UT#ABA 1 99.00 99.00
HP TouchPad US 16G wifi Smart Buy"

 

[Jesus Carbomb]

My order status is now "Shipping Soon".

Can't wait to get my HPEE Torchpad.

 

[Wario64]

Wario, where do you get the numbers?

Add 999 to your cart

 

[MercuryLS]

Still can't find a cheap touchstone dock here in Canada

 

[Jo-El]

Didn't that place on ebay have like 7000 or something?

 

[Petrie]

Yeah, it just keeps letting me order these. It's seeming a bit too good to be true.

 

[Lebron]

No way they have that many official Pads. My troll sense is tingling

 

[kehs]

Wario, where do you get the numbers?

From the Cheap Knock Off Forum he runs.

 

[Slayer-33]

Add 999 to your cart

I think you are secretly tempted to pull the trigger on that 999


lol.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I doubt it's likely they have 5,000+ HP Touchpads in stock

many of these orders are probably going to be cancelled.

yeah after reading some of the recent posts in this thread i was worried too. but im going to assume the same and think that smart buy = fire sale. If it is a box of rocks amazon will have a lot of shit to deal with.

 

[amrod]

anyone wanna sell me one without a huge markup ?

 

[MechDX]

Microsoft announces tomorrow a deal with HP to release a new verion of Windows 7 Tablet on the touchpad. Automatic installed base of a million plus.

Trolls Apple.

Datavis had 6000+ on ebay yesterday. There are lots of these units in warehouses.

 

[Jamesfrom818]

If I end up getting my 32 GB from Best Buy and 16 GB from Amazon, I'd be willing to sell one to a Los Angeles gaffer for only a $10 profit on my part.

You mean like the Iconia's touchscreen Windows 7?

Because that ain't a win for anyone. Rather stay with WebOS.

Some guy at SD says he has a friend who for a Chinese shipping caompany. Says he is currently on a ship headed to LA that has 6 containers full of these.
