I have this case

HP TouchPad Cover (FB343AA) - Black : Tablet Cases & Covers - Best Buy Canada

It's alright but I might return it and get something else cause the cover can be really flimsy and I don't like how the rubber texture attracts a lot of dust

for the price that looks preety good! i think im gonna order one now lol

Wow, I cannot believe they sold out so fast.

I'll wait a week/month and check CL again, I bet there will be lots available. For $99 it sounds like a great deal, until you actually want to use it for anything more than surfing the web, or realize you're not a geek and cannot follow any of the hacks to do something fun with it.

If anyone has the 16GB version for a decent price ($100-120) they want to sell let me know.

SiRV 08-22-2011 10:44 AM

fuckk just called staples and my order didn't go through :okay:

bobola 08-22-2011 10:50 AM

I skim over the RFD touchpad page.

This is for people who had purchase from the hp.ca shopping site.

Few other have to been confirming what this guy said to be true.

OK...The Item will be price-matched to 99/149. You will be charged the original cost first, then once the item is shipped, you must call back then to have the price changed.

They are checking inventory now to see how many orders can be fulfilled.

There are only 8, yes 8 CSR's working those lines.
Maybe someone who actually went thru all the lastest page can confirm this.

if any of you guys decide to buy this case i recommend purchasing from this seller

Folio Leather Stand Case Cover for HP TouchPad Tablet | eBay

its around the same price but the item is located in San Jose so shipping should be much quicker

ursher 08-22-2011 10:57 AM

damn too late, all stores sold out :(

if anyone wants to sell one for $120 I'll take one off your hands.

Thanks.

Was told by some merchants that BBY stores should be receiving their shipment of Touchpads today. They could be on the floor today depending on how fast the employees work to get them out.

I was at the Park Royal FS on sunday and I overheard one of the floor guys telling a customer that any new Touchpads they get will not be sold at the discounted price. The customer was :okay:

My co-worker said someone with a 133XXX order confirmation number received a shipping confirmation email from HP. My co-worker has a 135XXX order number while I have a 138XXX confirmation number. Still praying I do not get an order cancelled email.

krazynuck 08-22-2011 01:57 PM

ahhaha i went to staples and was like

Me:hey do u have that new tablet everyone is talking about....
Staples Guy: No we are sold out did you not see the sign
Me: wow demand is really high huh
Staples Guy: Ya for that price
Me: Well do you know if you will get more in?
Staples Guy: No they are discontinued
Me: I don't believe you...Samsung just released the tablet yesterday how is it already discountinued??
Staples Guy: :squint:
Me: :troll:
Staples Guy: :squint:

Tell them to look at the Best Buy website and price match it to the site. Ask to speak to a manager on duty if the cashier refuses to ring it in for the discounted price. If the manager refuses to sell it at the discounted price then tell them to call up retail ops @ CHQ and see what they say.

Still in search for one 16gb model if anyone has.
