Bummed that you didn’t pick up a HP Touchpad when it went on an insane $99 fire sale? Disappointing that you won’t get to play around with CyanogenMod’s upcoming Gingerbread port? Well buck up, deal seeker. You can find a dirt-cheap Touchpad at your local Aaron’s appliance rental center for just 89 greenbacks and one horrible, horrible catch.
That’s right: for only $89.99 a month for twelve months you can own what might be one of the very last Touchpads ever to be sold at retail. That’s a downright steal at just $950 and change. Of course, you high rollers don’t want to deal with the hassle of sending in checks every month, so you can just pay the every day “low” price of $1424.99. Man, it’s going to be a hard choice between one unsupported tablet, almost three iPads, seven Kindle Fires, or 1,400 Slim Jims. But on the plus side, you won’t need to go through any credit checks.
P.T. Barnum said that there’s a sucker born every minute. If he were alive today, he might say they were born across the street from Aaron’s.

who is dumb enough to buy this
I laughed for about 3 minutes, than I would slap the idiots at Aaron who think think of such a scheme.
-Sent from my Touchpad I got for $149.
They didn’t buy it at the regular price why would they think someone would buy it at these ridiculous prices.
I’m sure there will be enough people willing to buy it.
“Works like nothing else” is a lie. If you buy this you will have to “WORK YOUR ASS OFF” to pay for it
