B&N are clever SOB!! They just announced today that they will strongly begin to push their Nooks to compete with iPads...

So those who got a cancellation email, expect a marketing campaign for the Nook on your behalf

It sounds like anything ordered after 6 - 6:15 EST from onSale will be cancelled, orders from 5:18 EST have confirmed / shipped. They might also be limiting sales to 2 / customer which extends stock to more buyers.

I'm not sure exactly when I ordered. I got my confirmation email about 8pm, but I know I placed the order a good bit before then.

From OnSale's FB page:

Ordered at 2:30, confirmation at 2:42. #104 in backorder line.



I'm not getting it. I'll be interested in buying an extra from someone here. PM if you've got one and want to make a couple bucks.

On slickdeals they are saying OnSale is supposed to get more in stock to fill all the orders. I'm going to try and buy from HP tomorrow and will try to buy 5. If I can get those I will sell them at cost to people on here.

Sounds like a troll, CSR's are saying otherwise. I was tempted to purchase from Buy.com @ full price hoping they would honor price drop. I should have, they're refunding customers and honoring the dropped price now.

Hook a white boy up if you get the extras, please. I get the feeling both of my orders are vapor.
