Im making a list for fun going from rarest down.

1. Windsornot. At least one to two of the devices exist. There is a thread for it.
2. Touchpad Go. Fewer than a few dozen exist,. A seven inch Touchpad.
3. White Pre 3. I only know that one of these devices exist.
4. C40 Prototype. The Sprint Pre 2. Less than 6 I know of exist.
5. Touchstone 2. At least 3 of these exist. Essentially an audio dock for the Pre 3. I own one but I recently saw there were a few more out there so I was wrong here ;p.

6. Veer with Touch to Share. Fewer than ten exist with the ability to do TTS without a need to update the firmware it is essentially ble to do it out of the box.

7. Verizon Pre 3. Im guessing less than a few hundred exist.
8. TouchPad 4G. I own one but it was very hard to find.
9. TouchPad 64 GB. Same as the 4G Touch Pad.
10. Pre 3. Many were made but never officially released.
11. Umm...the Gnex with Open WebOS?

5 More than 3 exist, especially because some members from this forum have tested it during the testing period.
6 Huh? If you doctor the Veer to 2.2.4 you can TTS all you want so that's not rare at all.
8 Quite easy to obtain if you live in the USA but not outside of the USA (let alone getting it work; who knows in which countries it actually works). I would like to have one though if it supports the Dutch 4G network (my WiFi Touchpad is awesome but sometimes I wish I could use it on the road with internet, like I did with my Motorola Xoom 2,5 years ago before the TP came out)
9 Not that rare, I guess. I've seen it on ebay.de multiple times, even recently. It was officially released in some European countries IIRC so at least a few hundred of 'em must have been made.
10 True, but I wouldn't call it rare. It's actually damn easy to obtain a Pre 3, even after more than a year has passed.

So there are really only a few hundred VZW Pre 3's? Now I feel special!

So, John, where can I find the webOS 2.2.5 script? I just did a git pull and don't see it included.

Would anyone like to help me with my Veer 2.2.4 project im losing my sanity on trying to do it.

The one the backup came on was stock?

It was stock

Touchpad Go - There's no way the number is less than a dozen. Less than a hundred most likely, but there's way more than a dozen.

64GB Touchpad - have to have been several thousand of these. On Black Thursday, Ingram Micro had 200 of these in stock in a US warehouse, and had had them for a week or so; I don't really believe Ingram had most or all of the world's supply of 64GB TouchPads at that point.

[Ventus221]

Hmm notice i said a few dozen not just 12 lol

[Ventus221]

Wow :3 good one

[Mutoidi]

5). Touchstone 2.. way more than 3 of these exist!

There are x 3 such items on this ebay sellers list right NOW (4/12/13), for a start! ::

@ John Steffes - How is your Pre3 2.2.5 (AT&T?) build progressing - or do I gather that it now done!
Great work!

[Ventus221]

again i may be wrong lol its only what i obsereved

[Mutoidi]

again i may be wrong lol its only what i obsereved

That's the great thing about this Forum.. and the Internet in general.. there are HUNDREDS + of us, also 'obsereveing'!

Lets face it.. you ARE 'wrong' LOL! - But it's great to see what 'rarities' are 'out there'! Thank you!

Indeed, 'cause like I said earlier, they did launch it in Europe so there have to be at least some hundreds made for Europe alone: HP Launches 64GB TouchPad in Europe, Despite Poor Sales | TechnoBuffalo

@Ventus: The Pre 3 was officially released in Europe so your Pre 3 argument is a bit moot: http://www.technobuffalo.com/2011/08...g-to-u-s-soon/

Thanks...

A little birdie sent me a AT&T rootfs of webOS 2.2.5 (this is not the Verizon webOS 2.2.5, with Verizon parts removed and AT&T added), so as I was focused on the Touchpad Go build I have not gotten to the script to clean up the rootfs... but when I get the time I will post a script and a link to the clean rootfs in the page plus thread...

As I am on Verizon (on a PrePlus with webOS 2.2.4), I can not test the build's AT&T functionality, but I will be able to build a doctor and run it on another ARM device to test to make sure it passes the IPKG md5sums's checks...

That's great news John. Thank You.. and what a thoughtful 'little birdie'.
I therefore greatly look forward to your relevant and specific AT&T 'flavoured' webOS 2.2.5 updates now.
And good luck with the 'GO' build too!
