I could get on board at under $100.

...although not if it takes more effort than dropping $100 on a counter and getting the product.

What are the chances of Android running fully on this? IMO, that's the only real reason for getting it.

I'd never pay full price for ths, but $99 is almost worth it. The hardware is excellent, it's the software that sucks shit. I'm sure eventually Android will be ported to it, making it an excellent steal for $99

Sad that I missed out

There's literally 100,000s of Touchpads sitting in warehouses somewhere. There's plenty more to come.

HP quietly launches the White 64GB TouchPad in the U.S. for $599 | Tablets Planet

White 64GB just got released.

Also, I think 4G models on the way. Infact, the White 64GB comes w/ 1.5Ghz instead of 1.2Ghz processor.People can harp on the software all they want, but I really enjoy how the OS handles multitasking compared to say, iOS. It's more streamlined and efficient than iOS.

Staples, both in Richmond are OOS. London Drugs on Vic/41st OOS and won't be bringing any more in. He probably said that due to all the phone calls he probably got asking if the touchpad was in stock.
