HP TouchPad Firesale-$99!!

Post by bisontuba »

Hi-
HP of course a few days ago announced it was dropping it's recently released TouchPad tablet. The 16gGB WiFi model originally sold for $499, then HP reduced it to $399.
Starting this weekend, HP has slashed the prices to blow them out in a Fire sale-the 16GB model is $99 & the 32GB model is $149!!!
Even though I am an Apple man with my iPad, IF you can find a Touchpad for $99 bucks, buy it!! One of the great deals going-I heard BestBuy today was a zoo- good luck!

They were all gone from my local Best Buy and Staples when I went to look yesterday evening. :(

From what I've heard, $99 for one of these is a steal.

Link to HP's website to be notified when more TouchPads are available.

Hi-
For HP to introduce a new product and go from $499 to $399 in a few weeks to stop production and sell at $99 is just bizarre! HP's stock dropped 20% Friday, look out tomorrow...if they don't fire their CEO tomorrow, something is wrong...

BTW, The Samsung tablet is not doing well either...today BestBuy is throwing one in for FREE if you buy a 3-D HD Samsung TV-that is a $499 discount.

Amazing discounts...

P.S. And if you try the link to HP to get notified about the tablets, you fill out the form, click submit, and then a 'server busy' sign appears---what an embarrassment for a tech company...
