Usb ports do wear out. Just ask my old samsung. But it also makes a nice stand to turn it into a digital photo frame.

Unlike the IPOD Touch 2 glitched orders on TD's shopping site, what happened to the TPs on TSC is not much of a glitch.
Can't see the TSC management canceling the orders who have gone to tracking numbers.

Well I remember he did or posted something in the Hot Deals forum long time ago that REALLY pissed me off... so much that I'd remember him after this long. Don't really care to check it up though anymore... but still hated by me, whatever it was.

Quick, call anyone you know at The Star, Globe and Mail, Sun, Gazette, etc. and let them know how TSC screwed up big time!
Seriously, more people need to know about TSC's EPIC FAILURE... the 7AM sale that wasn't!

My convo at TSC...
Michael says:Hello.
Pamela says:Welcome to LiveHelp, my name is Pamela and I will be assisting you with your inquiry today.
Pamela says:It was a web special only available while quantity last, unfortunately this is now sold out.
Michael says:And it was due to the glitch/phone in orders prior to the sale, correct?
Pamela says:I'm not sure sir.
Michael says:Look, I've had 2 hours of sleep tonight. I'm not here to rail on you for an order or why I couldn't get one. I just want some closure. Do you have any idea if there's 1.) any more stock coming or 2.) any action going to be taken with the early guys that ordered?
Pamela says:At this time we do not have a waitlist, and no decision has been made regarding the early orders.
Michael says:You guys are getting hammered with calls about these touchpads eh
Pamela says:What can I say.
Michael says:Well, what do you think of the whole thing?
Michael says:On second thought, you're probably logged for all your answers.
Michael says:Thanks for your time Pamela. Hope the masses are nice to you.
Pamela says:Thank you.
Be nice to Pamela...

This is a good idea. They're all people just like us and we need them to side with us. Every little thing counts and we all know how far we can get with a simple "please" and "thank you"

How can you ban someone for posting something that shows on a site?
no "hack" was done. The product was available on the site before they said it would be. Thats not really hacking if you ask me.
Not much different then the "hot deals" that exploit and take advantage of price matching on a daily basis.

TSC's only goal is to sell out and they did. Realisticly do you really think they want to redo all those orders that they spent time processing, only to get new orders in to re-process while still making the same amount of money? Doesn't make any sense to me to waste extra man hours, they'd piss off a lot more people cancelling the orders then they would if they just left them.
Lets drop this TSC thing and move onto finding more sites to order from.
You're speculating and just want RFDr's to back off and allow TSC to ship your order out.

its not that hard to cancel all the phone orders, just because you have a tracking number doesn't mean canada post has it, its probably still sitting in their warehouse.
all they have to do is log on-to Canada post's website, click on all the orders, and click cancel, viola, no touch pad gonna get shipped.
only thing that's left is what is in their own system.
it's not who you are, it's what you do.

Yes, the dock actually is useful. USB ports do wear out fast with use, and so do the cables. No cables and no contact = no wear.

You guys don't seem to get it though, HP advertised this deal on FB, not TSC, so they didn't really screw up at all.
This is how the manager's conversation will be:
Manager 1: So whats the problem?
Manager 2: We've sold out of the HP Touchpad Bundles
Manager 1: Why is that a problem?
Manager 2: We sold out last night.
Manager 1: Why is that a problem?
