Don't bother, they are all going to pre-orders, including many that ordered before the price even dropped.

I missed the boat completely, but all the 16GB TouchPads have been going for about $250 on eBay.

Spoke to all my suppliers and theres a huge back order on these.. Most likely lots of people will not be receiving their orders. I know Direct Dial alone took 7000 orderes in one day. Check with all other suppliers an no one is taking anymore orders..

NCIX will be getting around 400 or already has. they will be selling them off to people who PMed or had ordered previously first (and didnt cancel) i really doubt there will be any left.

that touchpad video just reminded me of one of my favorite shows.
