    I did. Got a confirmation email from amazon.
    This will be a good present for my mom

    Not sure if I'll get it tho. The amazon link kept on saying it was sold out. Then suddenly it worked. Glitch? Or do they really have it in stock. Guess we shall see

    I have not received any emails from BestBuy after the one at 6:33am that said:

    8/21/2011
    Order Number: BBY***************

    Dear XXXXX:

    Thank you for shopping at Best Buy. We have received your order, and it will be processed as soon as possible.

    Shipping
    We will send you an e-mail that includes the shipping date and tracking number of your item once it is packed and ready to be shipped from our warehouse. Your credit card will not be charged until we ship the item(s) to you.

    Thank you.
    Best Buy Customer Service

    And, the web site continues to say:

    Order Status: 1 item(s) - Order in process of being fulfilled; Usually ships in 0 - 1 days.


    Has anyone received any different communication from BestBuy like an email with more of a confirmation that they will get the TouchPad? While I won't be too shocked to not get one, nor will I be too unhappy, I reckon I could have gone the more recent Amazon direction and ordered the 16gb through them for $99, so waiting to see if Best Buy actually processes and send my order is a bit disappointing if it doesn't actually happen.

    Or... is it realistic to believe the tablet will be packed and shipped tomorrow (a regular business day)?

    So... has anyone that ordered from Best Buy received any emails that are more specific that their order happened (and perhaps will be shipped?)?

    I am still holding out for my HP order to go through but feel pretty confident if it doesn't I can pick one up somewhere else later. Seems like retailers just needed a few days to change the price.

    I got another from amazon. Onsale is a division of macmall, so I wouldn't worry about them. They probably do have thousands in stock.

    According to slickdeals some people with high volume orders were getting their orders modified\canceled, so thats why the status keeps changing. I wouldn't be too worried, someone said they called parent company of OnSale and they said the had a ton of touchpads.

    Thanks guys, I've been on a periodical watch since last night. Hopefully we all get it through that amazon link, but it looks like it might have gotten overloaded.

    If you ordered from the HP small business site that had a link in previous post then don't expect it to go through. I ordered one and recieved an order confirmation (not by email) but when I cheked my order status an hour later it said order could not be completed.

    so, just curious.

    how many new webOS owners do we have here now?

    Looks like there may be enough to make a seperate "Top 5 Things to do First to Your New Touchpad" thread.

    I'd appreciate that. If it doesn't get much activity you can merge it with this thread.
