    I got the deal about two weeks ago, they(HP and other major retailers) were selling 16GB HP Touchpads for $99 and 32GB for $149. There were some other coupons for $15 off and $30 off depending on the size of the order. I bought 4 16GB for $397 shipped, which is more than 75% off the original price (would have cost me $1600+ tax without the deal and coupon).

    I got 3 for the family one for me, did some WebOS patches to make it run a lot quicker and smoother and THEN overclocked it from 1.2ghz to 1.5ghz. Absolute steal at this price. If you're lucky enough you can still find some in stores, I've hear rumors about them being restocked to get rid of the rest of the stock but nothing confirmed.

    It was out of stock everywhere but you can put your name on the waiting list at the HP Store.

    How do you print from this thing? It asks for a Printer IP address. Does it only work if the printer is connected to a router? My printer is connected to a home computer and shared on the network.
