UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
According to member 'goodintentions':
"The 10 bucks thing is still on. You need to go to their website and then a popup asks you for your email. Give it to them, confirm it, and they will send you a $10 discount."
so, $339 and holding!
I have scored what may be the best "new condition" GTab price yet!
So, you can get a $10 credit just for liking Tigerdirect.com's facebook page
(you will need to have a facebook account... but who doesn't at this point)
I clicked the "like" button, entered my email address, and shortly thereafter
received my $10 credit via email...
I initially searched their site for a $10 gadget that I could score for free...
but found nothing I really liked...
Then I figured I better check to see if they carry GTab's and for how much...
They have it listed for the typical $369...
so with my $10 credit I was looking at $359 with free shipping
which was not a bad start... but then I noticed on sales page for the GTab:
(apparently I am too new to post links here...
so just search "viewsonic g tab" at tigerdirect.com)
there is a $20 extra savings coupon code listed right there "HSN23053"
Naturally I assumed they could not be combined...
but it turns out that they can be combined...
now my total was $339... with free shipipng, and since I live in CA
NO TAX too!
How could I not click the "order" button
So there you have it... anyone holding out for a price drop should stop holding out and take advantage of this deal before that $20 coupon code disappears!
I even took a screenshot for the non-believers.
Where's the facebook link? I'm not able to track it down.
Thanks...
I cannot post links yet... just google "like tigerdirect.com"
or search for tigerdirect.com on Facebook
Hope that helps
Is there a time limit? I'm busy now.

How???????
Looks like this FB thing is expired, but another way to do it for about the same price (even a little cheaper) is to got to ebates.com and get 3% by going to tigerdirect from there. I use them all the time and have gotten several payments back using their site. A G-tablet for less than $339 is a steal!

so you're telling me I have to update my update...
they had some cpn codes on slickdeals where if u ordered something and applied the code, it gave u a free dvd player(actually the cpn code i might have found on retailmenot.com). well i walked into the store and asked if they can build my order there, and they said yes, but the dvd player code did not work in store. we went online and it worked there, so they looked to see if they could give me the model dvd player, but had none in stock.
so i asked him to credit me the difference of the value of the dvd player, which he did and i picked up the case as well.
you guys gotta learn how to play the system better
*edit* actually playing with the cpn code now, it only gives 30 off instead of the 50 i got. i guess its somewhat of a dead deal compared to the op's post)

Well played good sir
$275 from Craig's List!
I picked up a gTablet from Craig's List for $275 a couple of days ago. Granted, it's used, but it looks brand-new. *And* it comes with a carbon fiber skin, an extra AC adapter (so two of them), and the Malata dock. Sweet!
Ron
If i had a choice between a gtablet, xoom or notion ink adam.. would the gtab be the better bang for the buck?

You got to love and hate hotdeals.
It is without doubt a bargain, if you want one and can afford it, I believe that people on that site just vote cold on anything they dont want or cant afford or dont understand, shame really.

Thanks for that - i've been waiting for play.com to have a 10% discount which would have only bought the price down to £432(approx).
This is a great price - i only hope they don't say its a mistake as it looks like one (its cheaper than the Diamond which is £363.39).
It Should arrive on Thursday - just ordered it now.

I've decided to give a WM phone a go again and ordered myself.
To start with I'll just use it with a data sim, to see what its like, as you can't knock a blackberry for staying in touch with IM etc, but Im just so bored of the crap browser experience and lack of software like Live Mesh, which I use one hell of a lot to keep things synced.
I'll use both for a few weeks and see how it goes.
Looks like they have discovered it - gone back up to £466.89 without postage.
Good thing i bought mine
LOL! I don't feel so sick now ; )
spark9990, when your new pro arrives, please could you take a look at what version ROM it ships with now? (start/settings, system tab, device information - though I'm sure you'll know that already). Congratulations on getting such a great price!!!

Had they sent emails to you both confirming dispatch? If so then then I guess they had entered into a contract with you... talk to Trading Standards for a firm answer....

I don't have proof of that - but i do have a receipt, and they did take money out of my account.
Then without my permission carried out a refund transaction. I trying to find out how to contact trading standards but in the mean time i am going to try to reason with sellers.
In a retail store, if a product is tagged as a cheaper price by mistake, then the retailer has to give it at that price.
If Handtec had debited your back account/credit card account, then they had entered into a contract with you to supply that item at that price. Speak to both Trading Standards and Handtec about it and make sure you can demonstrate that they had taken your dosh. All you did is select a product on Handtec's website in good faith and, for their part, it would appear that they too entered into that contract to suppply it, so I suggest they honour it!
EDIT: http://www.tradingstandards.gov.uk, and they should have an entry in your local phone book. Kent is 0845 7585497 (just in case - good luck!)

Thats not true. Most big stores (such as Tesco) will sell you at the quoted price for the good will. By Law they infact have something like 24 hours to correct the price once notified by a customer, during which time they can sell at a different price than is quoted.
That is really bad!
I thought maybe it had something to do with stock levels, but if it got to the depot, you think they would have realised!
Hope you get a response from them or Trading Standards
https://www.mysearsrebate.com/rebatecenter.htm
you need your receipt to open a rebate. the type of rebate we have is not in the list they say they offer(this worries me!)
here is a screenshot of the rebate as they had it posted on their website as part of our argument. everyone open rebate tickets and complain!
I bought mine Friday and saw this as well. Went back today and they took it off the site. Thanks for the link, something to show them when I call about it.
Also, went to the store today to price match the price since it went back to 379.99.
Thanks for posting that up. I have sent them a email through their contact form and since I can not attach the image via the form I placed it on my server and gave them the link to see.
if anyone else wants to do that the link is
http://clickonpc.com/rebate/searsrebate.jpg
I told them to contact me ASAP so I can return the unit if I do not get my rebate.
I would suggest as well anyone buying it from sears 11/26 contact them ASAP.

i think it may have to be bought on 11/25 or previous. it doesnt show in my screenshot i think but i remember seeing 11/25 as the rebate expiration
It was on there site when I purchased mine and said it was eligible when I added to my cart.
Great timing! I saw the "docking station" rebate on Friday, too. I was bummed because it appeared my local Sears wasn't honoring the sale price of $379 with a free case. Whatever, I was fine with a docking station.
BUT, today I went online to file the rebate and it was gone...so I called the local Sears when I picked up my G-Tab (online purchase but store pickup) and they weren't aware of the docking station rebate. They did say they were sorry I didn't get the $379 deal and free case, but just drop in with my receipt and they'd make it right. That they did...it was a trip out of my way, but 5 minutes well spent.

That is because their site was screwed up on Friday. when I bought mine, it said $379 plus the rebate, when I click on it to the tablet page to add it to cart it changed to $399 with the rebate. I blew it off as there site was screwed up, but the rebate was still there. Then I picked it up not thinking I should have asked them at the store about the rebate.
Finally got home started charging it and when I went online Sat to check the whole rebate thing is was gone? I contacted them through chat they sent me to the rebate site and the rebate was not there? but the price had dropped, I drove in and got the $20 plus tax.
So site showed
$379 11/25
$399 11/26
$379 11/27
Would anyone happen to have the address to mail the rebate to?
I lost the 2nd page of the form...
BTW, the form does say purchases must be made on 11/25/10.
Thanks,
Krissy

I snagged my tab for $349.99 at Sears on black Friday. Anyone else get the same deal?
Last day for the rebate was 11/25/2010. I downloaded the form to a Microsoft .xps file since I was out-of-town and had no printer.
But be warned the instructions are so conflicted it's hard to know what to file. For example, whether or not to file the original (which I hate to do) or a copy.
If someone will tell me how to paste in a copy of the file, or will tell me where to send it -- I will provide it so people who may have bought by the 11/25/2010 deadline can file for the rebate.
The rebate has to be mailed by 12/25/2010 if I remember correctly.
Rev
Thank you Rev! (email address PM'd to you)
I just sat in chat with Sears Customer service for 30 minutes while they searched, and then tried to pass me off on the mysearsrebate.com site... which of course, doesn't have it.
Krissy
Attached are scans of the rebate form if anyone can use them. It appears the rebate offer was only good on 11/25.

According to the rebate form the rebate was only valid for ONE day - 11/25. So if you purchased it before then it won't work.

Well seems a grey area as the only place 11/25 is mentioned is in 'Offer Date'... there is no purchase date range requirement listed in either of the 2 pages so figure it can't hurt to try...
Thanks guys! I didn't even know the rebate exist. Bought mine on 25th for 379, so I should qualify.
Now my question is how do I get the dock? Does Sears send them when available or do we get some coupon to use to buy the dock when it comes out? I am confuse on this.
does anyone have any images of this so called dock that is coming out? looking to get the g tab for xmas and i've seen the DIY stand from ehunyadi.
Doesn't say. I assume they will ship the dock when available -- at least I hope so.
I can't post the .xps file I have because the attachments program won't accept it. Since someone else already has scanned and posted I will leave well enough alone!
I hope we find out it is good for more than just 11/25/10.

I bought two of the TF101-A1 (16GB version) at Fry's (they had 3 total) and I placed an order at Walmart.com at like 1am, which is supposed to be here tomorrow. I haven't been able to find a docking station anywhere...online or retail.
I managed to snag one of the TD bundles yesterday morning. No luck on any keyboard docks though
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045109
You need to be a materialistic individual to be able to stay up all night waiting for the Web sites to post the ASUS Transformer on their site at 3am only to have the entire stock be sold out in 3 minutes. I guess some people do not have jobs. So now you just wait like normal people and wait for the new shipment to arrive. I would recommend you pre order one. This is troublesome to know that this happens when something new is added to the market and people must have it now! In a month you will probably see a lot of them end up on EBay as the next new tablet will arrive and they will all have to have it now!
Good Luck

I'm waiting for a brick and mortar store. I don't want to have to deal with mailing it back or waiting to get my $399 refunded in case I don't like it. So yeah, if anyone finds it at an actual store (target, walmart, best buy, other popular nationwide chain) please PM me! I have 2 weeks from yesterday till I can't return my Iconia Tab for a refund anymore.
Ordered mine at B&H at 9:00pm sharp, saved the tax and free shipping. If I don't like it ill sell it on Craigslist or ebay.... now just gotta play that waiting game

Ordered mine on BestBuy.com last night between 12:30 and 1 am or so Pacific time, after failing on a number of other sites (missed the mad Amazon dash).
I couldn't actually find the product on BestBuy's site at that time via search but someone had posted a link on the preorder/retail thread that went to the direct order page.. followed the link.. it worked! Added item to cart, chose next day shipping, was expecting to get some sort of out of stock message at some stage of the order process as had happened on a few other sites, but it worked all the way through... Got confirmation email a few minutes later, shipping notice this morning along with a tracking number that UPS now confirms should arrive at my home tmw before 3pm.
Unfortunately the keyboard dock seems to be basically vaporware at this point, and that's a big motivator in why I picked this tablet so I hope I can buy one prior to June but it is difficult to tell if that will be possible since ASUS is doing a horrible, horrible job of communicating actual availability.
Ordered from Amazon 12:00 am on launch day. Received it yesterday!

Great to see our coupon being spread around, it is in fact available until May 16th.
In some cases, we lose money - like the HTC Media Link, with the discount it is below our cost. Why do we offer it? We're doing a little benchmark.
In Canada we're #1 in Telecommunication accessories. We're the largest distributor and often have exclusive rights to some products / pricing.
In USA we're part of the Top 5 in accessories.

In response to resellerratings.com - this website is not a great source for the real reviews. Why? Because this website allows anyone to register and submit a review. If you read them, a lot of them are around the same time with the slightly altered writing. I will say we've caught a few of our competitors trying to slander our name, and we've confirmed many of submissions were in fact submitted by them.
If you want the real deal - check out the reviews from ACTUAL customers.

If I got this straight this will allow you to mirror you phone via wireless on any tv that has an HDMI port. Is this correct? If it is than this is awesome. You can turn any tv with an HDMI port into an android system

I just used an old discount code for 50% and it took it! We'll see if I actually get it of course. LOL. With that in mind, I went through PayPal just in case.

Wish I knew about that one before. Could have saved about another 10 bucks.

This is correct. Full details about the product is available on HTC's website.
Ordered from Pure Mobile's Canadian site. Can't wait!

Great to see our coupon being spread around, it is in fact available until May 16th.
In some cases, we lose money - like the HTC Media Link, with the discount it is below our cost. Why do we offer it? We're doing a little benchmark.
In Canada we're #1 in Telecommunication accessories. We're the largest distributor and often have exclusive rights to some products / pricing.
In USA we're part of the Top 5 in accessories.
Our website uses minimum 128-bit encryption, so you can be rest assured that it is secure. If you want the extra security, simply checkout with PayPal and get the Buyer Protection from PayPal.
In response to resellerratings.com - this website is not a great source for the real reviews. Why? Because this website allows anyone to register and submit a review. If you read them, a lot of them are around the same time with the slightly altered writing. I will say we've caught a few of our competitors trying to slander our name, and we've confirmed many of submissions were in fact submitted by them.
If you want the real deal - check out the reviews from ACTUAL customers.

Will you be carrying the HTC Car StereoClip anytime soon ?
Thx
I got mine and just finished testing it out. So far this is what it's like:
-The feature to be able to still use the phone be able to lock it during video playback only applies to when you're viewing videos and photos through the gallery app or streaming video through htc's media hub.
-When watching videos saved locally on the device it seems to run totally smooth.
-When streaming, the video is smooth, but the audio quality is off. Whenever someone talks it sounds like they took a lung full of helium. I tried this on netflix, youtube (app and browser), as well as some other video sites.
-The thing that'll probably be a problem for me the most is that during video playback, I experienced popping noises from the audio (both streaming videos from the internet and watching locally stored videos). Hopefully this can fix this with a software update.
Besides those points above, setting up was insanely easy. Just plug it in, push the button to turn on and swipe three fingers up on the phone. That's it!
Edit: Just tested netflix again and now everything is perfectly fine. Sound is perfect with no odd sounding voices and no popping. Totally perfect!
What's the chance for us early adopter to get a refund? Or are we Sol?
The facebook post says early adopters get a 200 dlls coupon. That could bring the cost of the phone to 300!
They better release the dock before then. =/
Pretty miffed about this.
I smell a death spiral

Link is in their blog post. https://www.essential.com/pages/friends-and-family-offer
While it's nice for them to offer this to us early adopters, it really doesn't benfit us unless they release the dock or other accessories by Dec 15th.
Well, my wife is really enjoying her phone... May pick up a white one for 299 with the code...I think that it's a great value at that price...
Oh, great idea, the white one is a nice idea... lol
Still waiting on them to release the gray and green version. Already have the phone so I am waiting for the dock and or smart home hub. It's nice that they at least gave us early adopters a bone. But without new accessories it really is a waste for us. They have dropped the ball before, so hoping they don't do it again. :/ They have allot of potential I just hope they get there. Also hopefully the lower price leads to more developers jumping in on the device and helping to get the developer section in this community going.
Oh, to have one of those codes. Id then go out on a limb and buy one of these great looking phones.
So tempted, but just not enough at $500.
bought off ebay
I literally bought and paid for a phone off ebay saturday night. the seller shipped it and said he would not work on price.
I want to be able to get a coupon but i'm afraid that "someone" will have already claimed it or essential will not honor it.... If anyone is in same situation, please let me know if you were able to get the coupon.
Thanks!

I did not. the seller had the phone until this morning. i asked for the IMEI and he said i would get it when it comes in the mail. so basically can't make the request until i get the imei. i have sneaky suspicion that he may have claimed.... he knew all about the promotion when i sent him a message.
I am just going to get another phone.
I don't think I'm going to bother with the charging pad if they release it in time seeing I keep the phone in a case anyway.
Sent out the info for my credit to Essential, and called Best Buy this morning and got them to price match the new price since I was within my return window (the credit has already shown up on my card).
So I got $200 back from Best Buy and will get $200 credit from Essential. Sweet.

How did you get them to do that? I haven't bought one, but if I can get them to knock another $200 off the 499, that'd be dope!
So I filled out the form, is there suppose to be an email confirmation?

No, I originally bought it for $699. Got best buy to price match it back to $499 after the price drop.
