For those who are still looking for PB, keep checking the big box sites. FS restocked almost 300 units for online orders this afternoon and then they went as well.

The Source ( Radio Shit ) still have some other than 16GB config.

Just keep checking their sites every few hours.


I picked up a bunch, selling them on CL.
Sweet !


Did you get one as well ?

After having wasted my time going to two stores which still listed the 16-gig Playbook as being in-stock online, I've found that neither FutureShop nor BestBuy can be trusted for their online inventory.

On the other hand, you might be able to order online (including for in-store delivery) from, say, Staples.

Or, Wal-Mart is said to be participating in the sale, but not listing it online; you might be lucky enough to find it if you go into their stores.

OOS everywhere in Hamilton when I checked in the early afternoon (Wal-Mart, Staples, etc.). I went into a Staples and was told there was a line up at 6:30 in the am, and they called around as far away as Oakville too with no luck.

Need? not really. Want? yes. I'd like something a little bigger than my iphone to watch movies on when i'm waiting in my car. the ipad is just a bit too big for me to carry around just-in-case. and for $200, i can use it for a couple of years and then give it away. maybe i'll be able to root it eventually and install android. maybe not. i can take that chance.

Okay, I'll bite, I'm curious, what are you doing in your car waiting for so long that you need a movie to watch? lol

I wait all the time in my car. i love it! i get where I'm supposed to be early, sometimes a half hour and would like to watch some short videos (not necessarily a movie). I'm tired of talk radio and enjoy watching clips from live shows. Believe it or not, once in a while I drive my wife somewhere and while she shops, i sit in the car. I catch a snooze, read a book, or, god forbid, watch videos. There are plenty of 5 and 10 minute instructional videos on youtube. I enjoy a hot cuppa and even a sandwich at the same time.

Are you saying you don't sit in your car? I thought all men did?

Not a whole lot no. Not enough to justify getting a tablet for now anyways. lol

To be honest, lately, I've been getting quite sick of all this tech' crap, it's a bit much and as Alvin Toffler once said, "information overload".
Now I prefer to just get away from all the shit for a bit and it feels good (walk my dog -phone is off then-, go for a ride out in the country, do whatever...)
I don't get how people can be on twitter or facebook constantly, maybe because their minds are so numb and dull as a result of the continual flow of information.

No thanks, need some down time.

People who do so to make a buck, need to get a second job, or maybe a better paying primary job.

Who in there right mind would buy it via private sale when there are a few stores offering the same deal. What profit would the re-seller stand to make?
