Are they in stock anywhere? I can't find one within 50 miles of where I live and work; I tried a zip code 1,000 miles away (where I used to live, in a much larger city) and couldn't find one in stock near there either.

Yes they are (at least in Austin area). I picked up one and a stock search showed several others in town had them as well. This was yesterday however.

The site is down for maintenance right now. Figures, now I'll probably stay up even later just to see if one is available nearby...

FYI, Gingerbread (almost?) always means OS is not upgradable.

Looks like it can be upgraded to Icecream Sandwich (4.0) using an image from Lenovo:

And, btw, the Thinkpad A1 and A1107 are the same hardware, but the A1107 comes pre-loaded with Icecream Sandwich.

No where within 75 miles of Jax, FL - oh well.

I own an A1107 and I wouldn't wish this piece of carp on my worst enemy. Unless I put it into airplane mode the battery will not last 10 hours. That is with it on standby. When you look at the battery monitor to see where it went, it says that 96% was spent on cell standby. The problem is that the A1107 doesn't have a cellular radio! It is wifi only. I ended up mounting it on a flip down bracket in the kitchen where it can be permanently connected to a power source. It's now an electronic cookbook.

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.
