The latest report we've heard is that Best Buy wants HP to take back about a quarter of a million unsold HP TouchPads. Reportedly Best Buy took delivery of 270,000 TouchPads and have only sold about 25,000 since the beginning of July. That's abysmal. Best Buy has done everything they can do to unload them, including massive price cuts with no increase in sales.
This is yet another example of our position on tablet computers: there is no market for tablets!! The only market that really exists is for iPads. The puppet masters at the iFruit company have done a superb job of selling the purportedly superior iPads.
All hardware companys need to recognize the awesome power of the iFruit company and their marketing machine. I love Android tablets and will continue to use them happily. Not as laptop/netbook or smartphone replacements but as a separate hardware class.
