LOL! Dangonay is completely missing the point...What is shitty about the company? Are you under the impression that employees are obligated to purchase this product? They're NOT LOL. No one has even told a single employee to go buy them. The employees found out about the promotion through their daily news feeds at work and the promotion is through HP...It has NOTHING to do with Future Shop or HP policies. I don't think you understand how employee incentives work...They're NOT MANDATORY and they are a BENEFIT to the employee.

Explain to me how being able to purchase a product at more than 1/2 off it's retail value is a BAD THING? LOL, your assessment of saying it's a bad company to work for is ludacris lol. Like I said, would you not want to buy products at discount prices from your work? If yes, then what exactly are you arguing here?? LOL What is the down side to this? Even management got in on this deal because it was so good. It has NOTHING to do with Future Shop or Best Buy policy. We get the same type of promotions from LG sometimes and Bose. You'd rather spend regular price on Bose products?? I don't think so.

And the whole idea of why HP was doing this (as I suggested, for better marketing through employees who work at retail stores) was a SUGGESTION! I'm the one who made it and it was a suggestion that makes complete sense from a marketing stand point. It has neither been confirmed or unconfirmed. You should really learn to read posts before you make wild assumptions that are completely FAR from the truth lol.

As for anyone who thinks because the tablet is discontinued it makes it a bad product...For $100...can you find a tablet that's better than this? I can't even find a picture frame with the same screen size and wifi for $100 which is what I will end up using this for if I don't end up liking the features...
