My friend's boss knows an HP employee who unfortunately works in the WebOS department, says that HP does have a huge order from the manufacturer in China waiting to arrive.

Exactly what I've been thinking. Plus with so many people trying to sell them for $200-300, they won't sell and people will eventually drop their prices.

My friends mom works for HP and didnt even pickup any. That says something about their product. Her job is safe because shes in another department but yea I'll wait and see how it plays out. Theres also the 64gb tablet thats supposed to sell for 250$ but maybe not in the states. We'll see.

Damn that sucks man. She seemed to think her job was secure for now. Maybe she was drunk.
In other news, good luck buying them at BestBuy. Been reading on the misc that they are saying sold out to customers and employees purchasing them by the boxload.
JIC did you pickup any?

Face it, this deal is DONE. Any more of these that make it to stores arent making it out on the floor.

there was a line at palm corporate and I didnt feel like driving there to line up..esp when it was 1 per person.
and i got 4 total for my coworkers..didnt make a single penny off them..kept one for myself. its a great unit..but the fingerprints all over the piano black finish is really annoying.
also just a tip for the i-clubbers. Wait for hpshopping.com this weekend. We took about 200k units back from best buy US, and still have some on hold from china on boats clearing customs. Just wait..dont pay over retail+tax
the hype will die down
