How Greedy? How many HP Tablets Purchased?

5,532 1,264 August 21, 2011 at 10:37 PM in Tech & Electronics (2)
As you probably already know, there is a frenzy for the $99 and $149 HP Tablets. The thread in the Hot Deals is breaking records for number of posts and viewers.

Did you get one? How many (so far)? Doesn't matter how many are confirmed, just how many you ordered.

Are they for an Orphanage? laugh out loud

Scored 10 Touchpads. 2 just came from Costcentral online. The rest were bought locally at Walmarts and Best Buy. It took alot of effort and lost alot of sleep but it was well worth it. In this economy, as a single mom, I do what I can to provide for my home on top of my two jobs. Reselling at a profit is a great option in our country.

Congrats on college! I just got one a few days ago myself. I hope you can find one.

I was giving it to my son, but it looks like I'll be giving him my laptop and using the touchpad myself. The touchpad can't play the games he enjoys. But it is well worth the money.

Thank you. Smilie

I might be getting one from a friend, but I'd still like to get another for non-school work and to share with my family. Can't beat $100.

I would take another one myself, it would make a great gift. But I'm glad to have one. My sons computer broke a few month ago and he was with out anything. If he saves enough money and I have some to pitch in, come Christmas maybe he can get another desktop so I can have my laptop back

Who knows, by then he might not have to save too much for a decent desktop at the rate prices are dropping.

I don't know who I hate more. The SOB's that bought more than they really need, or the beggers that just didn't get in on the deal.

He told all of the family to please give him money not gifts for Christmas. So I think he can pull it off.

Nice! If you've just got $20 to spend, you're not in my league. Big Grin

But seriously, I've made over $900 and kept one for myself.

you're a single mom, damaged goods warrant a discount - actually, you should offer up OTs and a few tasty photos to showcase your stuff ;-)





I jest I jest, working single Mom's have a hell of a job! That being said, I'd appreciate it if you'd make me a sandwich the next time you're in the kitchen
