Poll: HP TouchPad - $99 in US - any sign of UK drop?

[scrlk]

Misco is back up (but very slow). Still at full price.

Need Play/Expansys to drop soon, it's taking too long!

Just talked to CPW and the woman read out an email she had just received from upper management stating that anyone who got a confirmation email last night (the 1st one) will have their order processed today and stock has been allocated to them. Don't know how reliable it is, but that's all i know for now.

Hmm, i got the first confirmation email but when i rang up they had no record

Crescent has gone from in stock 2200 to 1300 to now out of stock but their price is still £350....wtf?

OMG FFS, do you not read anything?

FOR THE LAST TIME. HP ARE PULLING WEBOS AND ALL ASSOCIATED TABLET / MOBILE HARDWARE, PERMANENTLY, FOR EVER, THE END.

NO MORE UPDATES, NO MORE FIRMWARES, NO MORE SOFTWARE.

Your CaPsLocK is broke: And you're not 100% correct.

Does it allow you to "track your order" but comes up with an error page when you get onto Yodel? I'm scared
