I think its only confirmed for the Canadian Best Buys and Futureshop as far as what I'm reading. No word on US retailers yet, although, it'll probably be soon.

I want it.

Samsclub says it's in stock. Went all the way to entering credit card info and pressing the finalize purchase button only for it to say "out of stock"

So stupid, if it's OOS, why even let me put it in my cart....

Dammit SD said to keep trying on samsclub.

Although with CA taxes and shipping and 10% for non members I'm paying 192 for 32GB.

I'm fine with that cause I was thinking of getting a nook color just for websurfing....

best buy doesnt even list them on their site anymore. As much as I hate HP, for $100 I'll give it a try.

HP still shows them on their website, but when you go to view your cart it keeps erroring

lol for the hell of it i visited every store carrying any type of electronics in my local shopping mall. They all laughed at me for coming so late in the day. They were like "Umm we sold out as soon as we opened"

the closest I got was PC Richards, they had one on display and working! I said this has to be good! They even had the prices adjusted on the display 99/149

I asked the guy and got a big fat "Nope sold out and no we cant sell the display" lmao

oh well here's hoping my hp.com order from last night pans out
