HP drops TouchPad prices down to $100

Just a day after HP announced it will abandon webOS devices, the company has pushed a major sale on all their tablets in the market with the HP TouchPad now selling at just $100PHP 5,869INR 8,475EUR 95CNY 728 a piece.

Amazon has started implementing the price cuts (and so is Target).

The 32GB model is also now at $150PHP 8,803INR 12,712EUR 143CNY 1,092. You can go see the sale page here.

Update: Amazon just reverted back the price to $299PHP 17,547INR 25,340EUR 285CNY 2,176 but my cart is still showing $100PHP 5,869INR 8,475EUR 95CNY 728. That was quick. Not sure why they changed it again just now. It also just went out of stock at Target.com as well.

Update 2: Office Depot is selling the 16GB at $129PHP 7,570INR 10,933EUR 123CNY 939 and the 32GB at $150PHP 8,803INR 12,712EUR 143CNY 1,092.

Update 3: Target, Office Depot, etc. are quickly running out of inventory as people rush to get the sale.

It would be worthless coz HP has announced to abandon WebOS already. RIP to TouchPad and WebOS!
Dont buy, no more update to come!

If you’re going to use this as email, web browsing then its a good deal. Other than that I’d wait for better Android Tablets.

I still don’t understand HP, why ditch WebOS and license it to others?? Who’d license it when Android is open source?

I just wanna know if we can change the OS to Android or what bilang I’m not too tech savvy. Hahaha. And what apps are available and what support will still be available after the total phase-out of this.

Sayang naman if we have a nice tab that 1) can’t edit docs anymore and 2) has nothing to look forward to. :(

For those still interested, B&N is still selling these at discounted prices. Amazon, OfficeDepot, Staplea are out of stock. Got my 16GB one for $102 + around 13 bucks shipping and tax. B&N doesn’t ship electronics internationally, so you’ll have to ask a friend or relative to receive it and send it to you via UPS.

I’m just gonna use this as a browser and ebook reader until the Cyano and XDA folks come up with a Honeycomb port, which I figure won’t take too long.

I enjoyed the article about android tablets, they move at
a great pace that it can be difficult to keep
up, the nexus 7 and 10 have the newest OS, but there are actually so many
out there that have earlier versions of this operating system,
I thinks this article post might help a lot of people, as it has assisted me loads.
Thanks
