$99 HP Touchpad

[dodukes]

Well, I am still hoping for one for my kids bff. If anyone has one or wants to make a trade, holler, please.

Try the Aarons store locator to see if there is one near you, the ones by me are getting shipment in tomorrow.

called several Aarons in my area and got a different answer each time. Some are not selling them at all, some are only bundeling them with another computer, and one is selling them individually for $250 with no 20% off for cash.

Which one did you call?

 

[McIntoshMango]

No aarons here, but thank you anyway.

I am in South Florida, two get shipments in tomorrow and one gets shipment in on Wednesday, I didnt bother going further north. The 20% is supposedly YMMV.

OK, so here is my dumb move for the week. I ordered through SMB last Sunday. Got the confirmation of capture and order confirmation, but no order number on either e-mail. At the time of purchase I copied a screen shot of my order, but the right hand side with the order number is cut off. Is there an easy way to find my order #, or do I have to call and wait on hold for days on end? Can anyone help me? Thanks!

yep, that is what I had to do after trying several times the proper way... and waiting and waiting and waiting.. and never getting picked up.. that last time I waited, it was 2 hours.. then they disconnected me because they closed. It was after that I decided I was calling sales.. I waited under a minute..

For HP SMB call 888-728-9985. Have not waited more than a minute but they really cant tell you much. They can state if your order is still good to go or cancelled but not much more unless its already marked to ship.

Kind of disappointed in my Touchpad. I went with HP because I do not like how Apple products have to have special everything to work. Well, I guess I should have done my research because the HP Touchpad requires you to download music to it through HP Play which asks that you have an ITunes account and to put movies on it, they have to be in the format that an IPad uses MPEG-$ or .m4v Forget about using any movies that I had already converted to digital for anything else, I had to rip any and start new to format them differently.

I also hoped to use it to write on my blog, but so far I have not been able to sign in to Blogspot through it, although I can still see my blog, I can't do anything to it. I can write to it via e-mail but cannot publish it without logging in. Forget about an App for it. Plus the cool games my son's want for it are $9.99. I am glad that I got the 32 GB but still think I have a lot to learn on it. It does take a real learning curve, not something you can just get on and play with. You can get Angry Birds for free but the other versions will cost you and seasons only comes in holding it vertically and completely upside down. I haven't tried Rio yet.

I am bringing it on my trip on Wednesday so I'll let you know how it holds up.

I got the same letter. I have an order #, etc and it still shows the same information online. Is this letter saying that we WONT get them? It is very vague to say the least.

I never ordered at all.. had it in my cart but changed my mind (and then kicked myself)... I signed up for the notifications to let me know when they had restocked.. I assumed this email was the result of that, not my incomplete order.. but who knows!!

I just got this email too and am wondering the same thing. My order info hasn't changed online, but at this point I am not sure if that means anything or not.

 

[satorifound]

This email is for people on the contact me when available list....
