Re:The $99 TouchPad Sale Overwhelms Ebay by malkia on Monday December 12, 2011 @12:49AM (#3342473)
Same here, it was through some channel called ViennaChannels.com [Sales-Focused Demo Programs for Mobile Device Manufacturers & Carriers]

I signed up, and was later told that they were out of devices, but later I got one (last one according to them).

I see that the ebay.com's site the $149 one is still for sale (the one I got).

I was able to cross-compile and run luajit on it, and creatonix (Tim Caswell) got even more stuff (but haven't tried it yet).

It looks like there is a whole "homebrew" society distributing lots of open source packages. It's called Preware.
