HP Home & Office or BB in store. Just keep an eye out as you will have a very small window.

I am still annoyed that the iPad doesn't do flash just cause Apple has a feud with Adobe. The amount of flash on the web has gone down a lot compared to 2-3 years ago however it definitely still exists. Otherwise I would already have one.

Hmmmm local person is selling a 16gb on craigslist with chargestand and keyboard for $290. I am tempted to jump on it and just get the case at Walmart for $19.99 and then returning my accessory order to HP.

I don't know if they carry them in store, I meant to check today, but Costco had them on its website. Could be a greater chance of getting one from there due to not everyone having memberships.

The keyboard it self looks like a great bluetooth keyboard for a desktop if you don't use the 10 key pad a lot.

Yep, just checked my order status and HP SMB cancelled my order as well... and I ordered it on Monday through SMB at 2:03pm.

Glad I got a decent deal off of craigslist yesterday cause today's postings seems like I cant find a 16 gig in the LA/OC area for under $200...

You likely won't be able to leave feedback on Amazon about OnSale because your order was probably removed in general. Lol

I ordered the Touchstone and case from bestbuy. $70.67

I shouldve followed SD advice and add 2x Nook color screen protectors for $1.99 as fillers. You get an additional 20% off w/ 4 accessories.

I could've saved $10....

Ohh well. I'm gonna pick them up after work.

When I try to look at the details of my order status on HP SMB, it redirects me to a page that just says "Your request was unable to be processed at this time please try again later". Order history page shows the order I placed on Sunday, even has an Order ID and the price. I don't know what the hell is going on. My CC hasn't been charged so that's probably not a good sign.
