I just put Preware on mine (that I bought during the Fire Sale) this device still has some support. Plus with the still in development Cyanogenmod you can put a variation of Android on it

this product does it for my relationship with woot. We're done! Finished! No more shopping here!

Price gouging? this is supposed to be a woot-off, not highway robbery.

I bought my touchpad for $99....

Any company that would price gouge $150.00 over price is not a company to do business with.

You realize these originally sold for $400, right?

And that finding a $99 TouchPad right now is next to impossible, right?

Didn't HP close these out for $99 each?

Come on Woot, I may have been born at night but it wasn't last night.

It isn't. Someone was sleeping at the switch on this one... Perhaps Woot! got stock before the firesale...

16gb.

Was $99, but of course you can't get it at that price.

But $249?

Same price or less, shipped, on craigslist and ebay.

I think $199 would have been a reasonable price for both parties.

This concerns me - Amazon isn't thinking about spinning off Woot into a separate business, are they? And then changing their mind 6 weeks later, after replacing Bezos with someone from eBay?

Actually, at $249, I can't imagine this selling, unless the price includes a free Kindle Fire.

OK Woot, step it up - I've only bought 2 things in the last 13 months

Seriously?

If you are going to sell it for $249, it should at least be at 32Gb and you should throw in a bunch of crap in a bundle deal.

Wow, They completely missed the pricing mark on this one. The only people buying this tablet at this price are those people that never heard of the TouchPad Fire Sale.

I would have jumped at this up to $185, but $250? This is ridiculous.

Maybe with the inflated price you also get the CEO position at HP. The severance package is awesome, I hear...

No wonder you can't buy one from HP for $99, they sold them all to Woot it seems. Nice profit

I got one about a month ago, and I've really enjoyed it.

It beats the heck out of waiting for the laptop to boot when I want to check something online when away from home, and it's easier to deal with than on a small phone screen.

It doesn't have cellular internet access, but it works pretty well from a McDonald's parking lot, as long as you don't park to far. There's pretty much always a McDonald's nearby, and you don't have to actually go inside and buy anything.

Very disappointing price. Sure, supply and demand, but this is Woot.

You can buy Roombas for 40% off MSRP, but once a TouchPad rolls around, you mark it up 250%? For shame!
