HP has announced that the WiFi-only version of HP TouchPad will become available in the United States via AT&T beginning July 1. The first webOS tablet will also be available in the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, and Germany a few days later and in Canada in mid-July. Meanwhile, the rest of Europe, as well as Australia and Asia, will have to wait until later in the year to have their own TouchPad.

The tablet will be sold through authorized retailers and resellers, including Best Buy, Staples, Office Depot, Walmart, Sam's Club, OfficeMax, and Amazon.com among others. It costs $499.99 for the 16GB model and $599.99 for the 32 GB version.
