The $99 TouchPad fire sale](HP Issues TouchPad Liquidation Order - Get Yours Now For $100 | TechCrunch) was the best way to close the book on webOS and the TouchPad itself. It got the TouchPad into the hands of the fans. Only those that cared about the product lined up outside of Best Buy to grab one of the cheap notebooks. It’s also probably safe to say that most of these people do not have any interest in HP’s crapware notebooks. These people just wanted a solid tablet for a great price. HP, you should have taken your win and walked home. But you didn’t. You’ve screwed up. Again.
