I know, I know. We are all sick of the HP deals, but this is a pretty good deal. I haven't been able to find anywhere with these in stock, so I just picked one up.

Product Description-
Charge your HP TouchPad without wires using the sleek, stylish HP Touchstone Charging Dock. Simply place your tablet in the HP charging dock in either portrait or landscape view. With wireless charging, there are no connectors or cables to untangle. The easel back also lets you adjust the viewing angle to multiple positions, so you can watch videos and read books more comfortably. Browse the web effortlessly without using up the battery on your HP TouchPad. The charge time with this HP charging dock is the same as using a standard AC power adapter. Plus, the HP Touchstone Charging Dock keeps your HP tablet in a safe place when you’re not using it.

@designer218: Me too. e-mail I received:

"Thank you for your recent order for the HP Touchpad. If you are receiving this email, the item that you ordered is out of stock and your order has not been processed. Because of the volume of orders that could not be fulfilled we have set your entire order to “No Process” and this means the order will not bill and will self-cancel within 15 days. So any additional items, particularly HP TouchPad accessories which have zero stock available, will not be processed on that order.

We appreciate your patronage. Please accept our sincere apology for any inconvenience or confusion that this may have caused.

Sincerely,

The Launch Pad Sales Team"

Since my order was for accessories only, I assume that's what they mean to say.

On the other hand, my order is still alive on their site.... don't see anything about "No Process".

thank you @mukimuki for the (somewhat) re-assurance.. the links you posted don't seem to really support the safety of the site, but i just sent an order and waiting to see if the order will go through.. my costcentral order got cancelled so this is the next best thing since every electronic store in the SF Bay Area is sold out of accessories...

It looks like The Launch Pad is legit at least. They're Microsoft certified(according to Microsoft) and the website has been around for 12 years.

@mconrad: as far as I can see, channelonline is a storefront manager for various sites, and the complaints at your link are about other companies that use channelonline. Remember the products themselves are being sold by "launchpadonline"

In for 1.

I bought one from Adorama last night, they said they had stock but cancelled it this morning although their website STILL says it's in stock. The email cancelling it said they would "back order" it. I call BS. Why are they still selling an item they do not have and will most likely NOT get back in stock? Also reported them to WOT.

No one wants the aggravation that occurred with purchasing the Touchpads that OnSale and B&N did. Add Adorama to that list for Touchstone.

@mconrad: thanks for that heads up. Info is confusing but I am definitely concerned. Called them, could not get anyone live so I sent an email inquiry. May have to cancel my order.

Not encouraging info about usm.channelonline here: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/YourUpLink_usm_channelonline . It's confusing though about what sellerthey are talking about.

Looks good. Setting up an account and checkout are a little slow, but my order's in. If you have multiple touchpads, an additional set of accessories is only another $1 shipping.

well, i put in my order at 4PM and though it went through, they haven't charge d my card, so thats a plus. i got the original link from the touchpad slickdeals wiki, but they'd sold out the touchpad itself by then. i stuck around for a bit and found the accessories

you change the shipping at the last minute (there's a big dropdown with the "will-call" option as well)

also you might just want to browse to the frame itself:

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
