It's true. I had gotten a TouchPad last week, got it for the $100 off, on top of the $100 off, and there was a $50 instant rebate that was still active, so I paid $249 in total in just a couple of days.

Just got off the phone with Staples, got a $214 ($200 + sales tax) refund.

TouchPad for basically $35 + tax.
