craigslist is smashed with WTB adds lol. The FS adds are listing prices for $250+ for 15gb.

The WTB adds are all "Ill buy your 16gb for $150" lol

It will settle..

if there is still another 200k that are waiting to be sold, then the market will be flooded

I refuse to pay over $130 for one (that includes shipping/tax). Thats my top dollar.

Well boys, just bought mine and i do work for best but, we had a line wrapping around the folsom best buy store as if it was black friday. We had 20 of each and it strictly says that all employees who by them must be off the clock and in street clothes so no dibs at our store. But running the warehouse has its perks , but also i have access to look at all of our warehouses and shipping and ordering possibilities, and we were the last store above vacaville to ever receive them, so the best buy is bone dry.

no they didnt send them back, they threatened to and thats why HP dropped the price to $99. So that was it

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

in the update a 2nd touchpad showed up running Andriod. The guy ripped the ROM and provided it to the community to see how it was working.
