I like using Macys cause I can see what they have and check if they have it at the store as well. I am picky about shirts so I always like to try them on when possible. Damn good deal on the Hugo Boss.

It won't let me change it. Both accounts are grayed out, but I can change settings for each account.

On the Settings & Accounts card it says the top account will be used, but it doesn't allow me to change to the 2nd account.

True, I'll give it a try.

I searched precentral.com and had no luck over there, so we'll see if I can get it to work tonight.

http://www.davoco.com/ssproduct.a...1020182576 - 32GB

just place one for 32GB, but this means absolutely nothing, lol...

Tigerdirect is planning to release bundles of 32GB plus accessories for $199 sometime soon.

HP pulled their TouchPad page. Now it's just a bunch of accessories.

Guess they're not getting anymore TouchPads then???


Good prices though

TouchPad case -- was $50, now $20

TouchPad wireless keyboard -- was $70, now $30

Touchstone -- was $80, now $50

He meant that the links you posted were incorrect. They're truncated by the "..."

Not that it would have mattered..

If anyone is looking for a good screen protector get this one

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IUQWTU

I just received it and installed it. Zero fingerprints on my screen now and installs pretty easily. I did the Steamy Bathroom trick to install and came out perfect.

The only thing that sucks is that I ordered it 4 days ago for $16 bux and they just dropped the price to $8.95

Oh well, pick it up while you can. Look like they might by trying to liquidate the ones they have.

ok, so basically most retailers will replenish their stock to sell to their cancelled orders... Tigerdirect/CDW, HP, etc..etc...

Just placed an order with onSale... Apparently I'm guaranteed one now... I've heard this before

Nice

I cant believe it just dropped another dollar! SOB I feel like getting another set just in-case for the future. Obviously no one will be making screen protectors a year from now for a discontinued product.

I just ordered one, and if my parents don't want to buy it you can have it at cost + shipping. I paid $156 total shipped to my house.

I received an order confirmation which according to them is guaranteed shipment as they generate a custom link -one time use- per cancelled order, which takes away from their controlled inventory in real time. Bunch of hot air? Possibly, to me it became a game long time ago...

But if this is true, I'll spend the next year making fun of Miz (I mean, I shall continue to do so)

No charges yet.

I was wondering if I should have ordered two packs when I ordered them but I didn't now you are making me consider it again.
