With the announcement that HP is discontinuing the Web OS products, retailers are slashing the price of the HP touchpad like crazy...

Amazon.com has them on sale for $99 for the 16GB Wi-Fi tablet and $149 for the 32GB.

Just picked up a 16GB for the hell of it.

I can't find them for 99 on amazon. Do you have a link?

LOL. You're right... Hmm, that's strange, but I did get mine for $99

Either way, HP issued a statement to slash the price to $99 by the 20th. Most Canadian stores have already done so, and most US outlets were expected to do so by midnight (online)...

Not sure why Amazon would change the price back though, but if you're honestly interested, just keep trying.

When I first looked a little bit ago, they were listed at $398. I tried again in about 10 minutes for the hell of it and they had it at $99...

Now it's listed for $100

http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?docId=1000697331

*Edit

Now they moved it up to $299... Crazy.

Target.com had it for $99, but they're now sold out.

Yeah, saw that after I bought mine... Oh well.

I'm guessing HP.com will change their prices over at around midnight.

Just looked at Amazon.com again and now the price is listed at $398... No real sure what the hell is going on over there.

Just picked 3 up on ebay for $120. Figured the extra $20 was worth it considering it's literally sold out everywhere else.

I thought about ordering multiples last night, but figured I'd just get one and find some use for it somewhere.

My guess is there will be an influx of them on EBay for anywhere between 120-150. People looking to gain a bit of profit.

Ahh, no surpise. These devices were of terrible quality. I shocked they didn't drop to around $79.99.
