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

Yep.. gone. Hopefully the HP order over the weekend gets shipped. Ship date was supposed to be 8/23 but no update and no charge.

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.
