HP Touchpad price dropping to $99/$149 tomorrow!

Hey guys I saw no slickdeals that the price of the HP Touchpad is dropping 300 bucks tomorrow cause they dropped it! I called to confirm and its true, I bought 3 for the full price and they 100% guaranteed that I would be given credit when the price adjust tomorrow at 7AM EST.
Heres the Slickdeals thread:
http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3220862
You can either wait till tomorrow for the price drop or call in right now and pay full price and have it adjusted tomorrow morning. Some are saying the new price is live for the Academic shop but some people can't see it with .edu email addresses.
I have played with the tab in a store and I have to say for $99 this is one Hell of a steal.
Good luck.

Wow. I was expecting a liquidation, but this is remarkable. For browsing the web and random Document editing, this is an amazing price!
Does anyone know the hackability of this device? Do you think that, despite discontinuation, that the app market might become at least respectable (with xda involvement)?

I don't know about the hackability but I'll tell you this tab handles flash like a boss. Its the only one I've seen that can do 1080p youtube without a hitch. And I dunno, they are killing off the touchpad itself but they want to keep webOS alive, I don't really know what that means for webOS on the tab.

Think we can get android on this?

Uh, I've heard that someone is making progress with ubuntu but I've seen nothing on android. And its probably not gonna happen for all I know cause isn't honeycomb based on tegra?

So I can just buy this to just surf the internet? If so, I am ready to buy a couple.

Looks like I'll be buying one of these.

Is this only through slickdeals or is this hp's doing?

I'm torn between buying it or not. If an android port was confirmed to be possible and in the works, I'd definitely buy one.

Thank you for the information I'll keep this in mind

Does anyone know what stores have lowered the price? I've been checking the usual suspect's websites and they haven't updated yet. I'd rather walk into a brick and mortar place to get it though. I don't want to wait for shipping if I don't absolutely have to.

Target and amazon both had it but they sold out in minutes. I don't know but maybe bestbuy might have it tomorrow, I say this because Bestbuy Canada had the $100 price online.

Honeycomb has been ported to the galaxy s line, galaxy tab and evo... Probably more too, I think Nook. So... Maybe it's possible?

I'm DEFINITELY buying one and I'm sure ICS can be ported to it when the time comes since the source will be released for it. This is a SNAPDRAGON QUALCOMM CPU and GPU and HTC uses that for their CPU/GPUs so I don't see why it's not possible, someone would have to write a kernel from scratch though to make it smoother, just like how the HD2 has Android, but it's not perfect since it's not using it's own kernel. If someone actually takes the time to unlock the bootloader(if it isn't already unlocked) and write up a kernel for it and port ICS to it, this tablet can be badass ;D $99 Android Tablet with ICS pl0x.

Might wanna do it soon, the 16gb just went out of stock.

Damn, and 2wks ago, i just bought my daughter a 7" 4GB android 2.3.3 Coby tab for 180$ !!!!! Damn damn damn damn.

Got one for $90. I mean, at that point I couldn't resist. Heck, at worst I feel like if I use it, dont like it, I can still flip it for a tiny profit on craigslist or ebay.
Im really hoping for an android port. The specs on this tab are actually quite good. Im probably going to end up keeping it regardless. I'll probably just end up using it for bedside web-browsing, movies, and music.
There's a killing to be made by porting android to this thing. thousands of people just picked up this thing on slickdeals (there are literally over 11k browsing right now). I know tons are willing to donate (im good for 10$-20$ myself depending on quality and progress)
Looking forward to a touchpad xda forum soon

Worth the wait?

Me AND my girlfriend have been looking to get this tablet for a few months now... She is just a girl that won't use it to the extent I would... As an example she has my old evo 4g while I have the 3d... so I was wondering if I should get this transformer now for her and white for the transformer 2 or if I should just get both now...
Any comments on either tablet?

Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App

it all depends. correct me if im wrong but the transformer 2 doesnt have a guaranteed release date. it has an expected one. if you can wait it out for a few months or longer by all means. but honestly there will ALWAYS be a new device with better specs announced months , hell even days after getting a new device. you'll be waiting forever with the " i gotta have the latest and greatest" mentality. but hey its up to you. i say just get it now

Is getting the TF for you now and then hand it to her when the TF2 comes out and you buy it for yourself an acceptable solution?

I'm pretty sure it will be easy to sell the TF if you want the TF2 once it comes out. Craigslist for $350 easy.

yeah but once the tf2 comes out wont that drop?

Get an ipad 2. At least you'll know the value of that thing will not fall so easily.

Well IMO, I would go for a transformer now (as I did). There is no guaranteed release date for the TF2 and I don't want to sound pessimistic, but it'll contain new hardware and new OS, so probably it will have issues and it will take some time to iron out the early and unforeseen bugs. Hopefully I am wrong and it will be good straight from the launch I'll get one and sell the "old" if it will be much better than the current.

The tegra 3 chip is due to be released at the end of this year. It will take some time for asus engineers to adapt the chip into their tablet design. It will also take some extra time to stamp out bugs.
So, how long are you willing to wait? My prediction is we will see the gen 2 TF next March or April.
You go ahead and wait if you want.

If you're buying now? No it's not worth buying! when it was first released with android 3.0 it was a great device, almost perfect, but with constant worthless updates that have only ruined it my advice would be don't bother.
The last straw for me was updating to 3.2 (in the end i decided to because of constant *&(%&** pop-ups telling me there was an update available, and i just got pissed off with them) which totally ****ed up my music player, art never loads correctly.
I emailed them about a cure and they suggested a factory reset, which i did, then spent 4 hours re-installing my music only to have it go back to the same problem 2 days later.
There advice now is to send it in for a replacement, just for a ****ing software update that they had reason wahtsover to release in the first place, accept to help those wingy baby winers who ask for constant updates in the sad belief that new equals better
Did you know you can buy a 32gb xoom for the same price as a 16gb transformer I did

Let me understand: getting rid of bugs and improving the speed, adding features is bad... OK, fine. So you got rid of a fast updating device for the fastest one? Makes a lot of sense. Like, totally. Why not the Galaxy Tab 10? If Samsung does the same as with the original one you'll probably see up to 3-4 updates during the whole lifecycle.

So I talked it over with my girl and I think I got an idea...
If the TF2 is released late Q4 like all my googling has me to believe then I will get the TF1 in a few Weeks... Tweak it all out thanks to XDA and it's awesome developers and when the TF2 comes out I'll get that and my girl will put up $250ish + a "few favors" for the TF1... then BAM! Geeky couple all over again
Idea?

But it's true, whether you want to hear it or not.
I kept my eyes big and wide and was able to get the TF brand new at $255. Combined with my keyboard dock, that was about $380 I paid for my TF+dock setup brand new. I have not been able to find an ipad or ipad 2 anywhere near that price.
If you are worried that something newer and better is just right around the corner, why not get an ipad 2 so you can resell it for almost the value you paid for it?
Again, the tegra 3 will be released by nvidia at the end of this year. It will take asus at least 3 months to get these chips into their TF2. And it will take them another couple months to stamp out the bugs and smooth out the hardware-software compatibilities. My prediction is sometime in March or April, possibly May.
I first heard about asus building the transformer a whole year before it actually came out. There's a lesson for you.
So, since you are having doubts about getting the TF now, might as well get the ipad 2 and then next April you can try to get your hands on the TF 2 and resell your ipad 2 at almost its original value.
Either that or be like me and be happy with what we have right now. I have absolutely no intention to upgrade unless I see another deal like the one I had with my TF.

That same rumor said the transformer would come out in 2010. I remember anxiously waiting for it. Well, a whole year later, it finally hit the market.

Yikes!
So,is it too late to pick up the Transformer say in a couple of weeks? October? Are there any other quad-core tablets shipping in the coming months? Besides the Transformer 2?

Yeah im sure there will be but i REALLY like the whole Netbook/Tablet thing... ESPECIALLY if windows 8 is a goal for developers... All i really need a PC for right now is Minecraft and that should be fixed on the Transformer... I've gone the last year without a decent computer because i have had my EVOs... so a Transformer would be a good Mix for me... I thought about the Galaxy 10.1 but i didnt like the keyboard options it came with... So its the TF/TF2 for me!!!

I would say buy now. The longer you wait, the less likely u are going to find revision B60 or below...the revisions that can be rooted/rom'ed. I have already read a horror story about how some dude went to multiple stores and checked the entire stores stock looking for B60 or below and couldn't find one. The B70 revision has been out for a while now and it still hasn't been rooted yet. You may end up having to buy one on ebay or something if you want to root it.

[Q] When/If To Buy

So here's the deal, i just recently graduated high school and am moving to the UK to continue my education. I have been looking into tablets for a while and have finally decided to get one to aid in that endeavor and i feel that the infinity tab is my best option.
Now my question is, should i buy one before i fly out on the 24th or july? or wait to buy one when i get there? could i even get it in time? or should i just wait for the nexus 10?
let me know what you guys think, thanks in advance.

Personally I would want a tablet for playing with while traveling

Buy before you leave. Good chance it will be more expensive in the UK.
Sent from my De-Sensed HTC Vivid using XDA Premium App

Where exactly are you moving from? If the US, it will almost certainly be significantly cheaper to buy here and not the UK. When you add in VAT/Duty/Etc, it will probably be hundreds of USD more expensive over there.

Buy in the US before you depart, but keep in mind that US supply will probably be tight. So you may wind up having to buy in the UK if you cannot source an Infinity regardless.

agreed
yeah i was thinking it would be cheaper here, plus i was hoping to load it up with movies for the plane ride.
so if i were to preorder it with somthing like next day or 2 day shipping, you guys think ill get it in time?

No one here is going to be able to answer that question with an accurate response.
They are scheduled to go on sale the WEEK OF July 16th. That could mean anything up until 7/22. But that is subject to change with no notice. And even if it does "go on sale" by 7/16, who knows when whatever retailer you pick will actually have them. Then they need to process them and ship them out, plus transit time.
Also, keep in mind that J&R just removed the Infinity from their website, you can't order it through them anymore. AFAIK, they were the only retailer in the US to have pre-orders. I assume that they maxed out their incoming inventory, so stopped taking more. So even if you wanted to buy it now, you would have to find another US store that has them.
All in all, I would say that if you need it by 7/24, you could probably get one in time. But unless someone here as some guaranteed insider information, you still better be crossing your fingers. Worst case scenario, you could always cancel your order if it doesn't look like it will meet the deadline to be shipped.

Yeah, i dont really want to risk it, will the nexus 7 get to me on time? im beggining to think i should buy the nexus 7 and then the nexus 10 when it comes out. itll add up to about the same price i think.

haha. I do hope they do actually release it on the 3rd... but optimism is so non-British. Cynicism sits much better ^.^ I think the standard build phones would ship pretty fast anyway so a release on the 3rd for them makes sense; whereas customised moto maker ones will probably take more time anyway.
Here's to hoping a company makes a decent screen protector for this phone too in time for its release! oh wait... hope... bad...

Neither on the Nexus 6... Those round screens sure look nice but they are more fragile and makes it impossible to put a tempered glass.

Anybody notice that after the launch there has been zero follow-up by Motorola to ride the positive buzz to a launch? This makes zero business sense unless we consider what also happened just after the launch.
I am wondering if Lenovo is the issue. They zapped 500 from Moto's mobile division in Chicago and also let go of key software dev teams. It could be possible that given the staff reductions and distraction and disruptions this is not a good time frame to launch and would explain the pull of the announcement. Apparently feedback from Chicago does not suggest a facility "all systems go" for a launch and employees reporting they are still in shock and key positions were also laid off that are not filled to cover a launch.
I would not hold breath for a Sept 3 launch and also concerned for product support since apparently will be given to Lenovo who have no clue about Motorola (if you have dealt with Lenovo, they do not appear to have a good grasp of their own products as far as support). Shame too, since was looking forward (big time) to a 64GB version. Hoping I am reading too much into the events.
Whatever the case, you do not launch with such positive buzz and go dark like this. That defeats a key purpose of a launch in the first place.

It is mad to think that Motorola have done/said nothing after the announcement of the Style however the only good thing is the fact the shipments and general day to day sales i.e the Moto G 2015 seem to be going as planned without a hitch.
Not long to go before we see what happens lol. But honestly I cant see Lenovo making a mess of this, they are a well respected company also but tbh sometimes companies do make some proper stupid decisions ... Note 5 Not selling in Europe pops to mind hahah.
Sent from S3 via Tapatalk App.

Hoping that is correct The tweet being pulled and the complete darkness after a big launch is not a normal bridge to carry though to product release. a lot of momentum is lost. Whatever the case, Lenovo's timing appears bad.

Motorola Germany just answered a twitter question regarding the release. They expect a release in Germany around the middle of September. So maybe they can hold the 3rd September release in the US

All I know is that unless your quick your going to be left dissapointed as you're going to have a longer wait. In the UK the Moto X Play is already out of stock it went on sale only a few days ago.
I have a feeling the same will happen with the Style.
Wonder if this is common with Motorola and they run out of stock at launch. I know this was the case with the Nexus 6 but thats always the case with any Nexus LOL.

Motorola is very weak in regards to supply chain management and tend to be their own worst enemy. Was hoping Lenovo would help, but appears not to be the case. It is very ironic for a company so weak in supply chain to add the well-intended customer option of case customization.
I posted that the battery COULD be the Achilles Heal for the Moto X Pure, but Motorola supply chain for the critical launch release phase could be as well.

I preordered the moto x style at amazon.de in black 32GB (499€) today

Why do companies like this wait for so long to release this? If they had it within the first 2 months or so I would have for sure bought it, but at this point whenever it really comes in not so sure. Coming from a nexus nerd I'll have to get the new one that's probably 5ish months away based on typical releases.

It probably won't ever be released by the look of things. Just buy a powerbank if you need the extra juice, that's what I did.

Yep, seems to be DOA...

By the time they release it I'm gonna have a note 6 or nexus 6p.2 or nexus 7(?)

I guess you right.. just when you wanna get comfortable and stay with one phone.

Does anyone else make a product similar?
How much thickness does it add? Maybe there's a picture somewhere online of say a Nexus 5 with and without?
How does it actually work? Does it just charge your internal battery or does it somehow switch off internal and use external battery?

Now they are saying July

Atr this point, i give up. Just need a company to make a small battery pack I guess.

they did this with the 6, I think the case was released a month or so before the 6p was announced. it was a good case though

We finally have a date july 15th. I have been watching this so closely and I hope its made really well and works well. I will be ordering it day one.
