Over the weekend, retailers in the U.S. and Canada started slashing the price on the ill-fated iPad competitor to as low as $99.

It turns out lowering the price will move units. The 16 GB and 32 GB models of the TouchPad currently top Amazon.com's best-sellers list for electronics. Amazon.com is sold out of units, however, many of its affiliates and retail partners are offering the tablet, albeit at prices that don't match the $99 lows of the weekend.

For TouchPad owners who bought units at full price, Amazon.com and Best Buy have both adjusted their return policy, allowing early adopters the option to return their devices.

Meanwhile, PCWorld reports that HP is promising a second wave of TouchPad units in the next few days for people that want a chance to get a tablet on the cheap.
