HP TouchPad Fire Sale Could Hurt Low-Volume CompetitorsBy

HP’s
TouchPad fire sale
could drive low-volume tablet makers out of the market, further paddingApple’s market share
and reducing consumer choice in the long term.
http://zapp5.staticworld.net/images/article/2011/08/touchpad-5209253.jpgHere's the scenario that's developing.
Suppose HP sells half a million TouchPads at deeply discounted prices -- $99 for the 16GB WiFi model, which originally sold for $399, and $149 for the 32GB WiFi version, which originally sold for $499. That isn’t a stretch, since it sold an estimated 350,000 of the slates during the first wave of bargain basement pricing with a second wave to come.
Those sales will hurt all tablet makers, but the impact will be less severe for a tablet maker selling 9 million units a quarter, like Apple, than those selling 500,000 a quarter, like Samsung or Research In Motion.
Everyone likes a bargain, so it's easy to understand why a tablet with
critically acclaimed
technologyselling for $99
is flying off the shelves like there's no tomorrow. Actually, there
is
no tomorrow for the TouchPad, because HP won't be making any more of them.
While consumers may benefit from those "everything must go" prices in the short run, in the long run, they may be contributing to hurting competition in the market and furthering Apple's dominance of the market.
Some of those ill effects on low-volume tablet makers might have been abated if national electronics behemoth Best Buy had stuck to its decision to return its TouchPad inventory to HP. But once the big box retailer got a sniff of the sales velocity of the tablets at the HP website, it had a change of heart. "Due to HP’s decision to discontinue its TouchPad product, Best Buy will now provide clearance pricing for all HP TouchPad models regardless of previously advertised prices or promotions," the company said in one of its online community forums.
Best Buy added that customers who bought a TouchPad after June 19 can receive a refund for the difference between the purchased price and the clearance price. Or if they're skittish about owning a discontinued model, they can return the unit to where they bought it for a full refund,
it added.
Ironically, HP has
decided to discontinue the TouchPad
just when signs were appearing that it may be gaining some traction in the market.
A study released last week by
Robert W. Baird & Co.
showed that the iPad's popularity remains dominant, but in second place, albeit a distant second place, was the TouchPad. Of the 1100 people polled for the survey, 94.5 percent said they were interested in purchasing an iPad over any other tablet device. If they couldn't get an iPad, though, 10.3 percent of the respondents said they'd be content with a TouchPad.
"Although the figures differ depending on who you talk to, it is clear the complete dominance enjoyed by the iPad a year ago is beginning to slip,"
wrote John Norris
at RCR wireless News. "HP’s TouchPad has proved something of a dark horse."http://zapp5.staticworld.net/images/article/2011/07/ipad-2-vs-zoom-5198892.jpg
The demise of the TouchPad raises an interesting question about tablet pricing and whether it could be a key in breaking Apple's grip on the market.
"hink about the appeal of a quality $100 tablet,"
wrote Joe Wilcox
in Betanews. "People are clamoring to buy a product with no future. HP isn’t going to make any more. There won’t be new cases or peripherals. Meanwhile WebOS’ future is uncertain. Still people are fighting to pay."
刚去BESTBUY网站查了下，输入邮编后，出来的商店对于此商品全 Currently out of stock 哈哈，futureshop网站上也都是out of stock.
这几天店家会补货吗？ 补的话估计也会立刻被抢光。除非大清早去排队。『洋葱头S63』
但每户只限购一台。
而且---我早上要上班。『洋葱头S67』
不过话说回来，
目前更希望有一套便携NB音箱。 小平板电脑倒不是必需， 399降到99

比它的估价减得多。
看来是要钱不要货了。 恩，学IBM了
我们国内还是HP PC代理商呢，HP要抛PC业务，对我们不算好消息。本来想买个TOUCH弥补一下受伤的心灵呢，结果...唉，可恶啊，呵呵 除非给批发商大客户，以他的知名度刚出来不大可能很快通过零售卖光吧。
现在状态是店售有货 bestbuy线上只查到南岸一家有货，都空了 这价格等于白给，不抢光光才怪呢。 哇，有这么便宜的事？ 逗逗飞你好！顶一下你的贴！ 逗逗飞你好！顶一下你的贴！ 逗逗飞你好！顶一下你的贴！ 欢迎chitianhua，我们未来的NB人，呵呵 逗逗，回来后时差倒过来了吗？一切还好吧？ 回来很顺利的，笔记本这次带着充电器了，下了几个单机游戏，十几个小时玩玩游戏就过去了。
回家哪有功夫倒时差啊，收拾这收拾那，这里吃饭那里吃饭，第二天又被拉去啤酒节，人山人海，满地竹签餐巾纸，喝醉的吐一身躺一地的，排队半小时上个跟卫生间名字完全相反的卫生间......强烈感受了一下两边的反差，呵呵
可是早上去菜市场买菜还是很幸福的，呵呵，一切都跟不要钱似的，真便宜啊
对了，那个染发粉听说在福莱的印度店有卖，两刀多。我是在去机场的路上听朋友说的 是吗？太好了，下次有人去，帮忙捎些回来。呵呵呵呵.....
其实，在哪都是一个心态，2边各有利弊，就看的怎么对待了，随遇而安也是一种生活态度和方式，很多东西没有可比性。就像幸福不能用贫富之间的差异衡量一样。
回来后小朋友应该有感想吧？
