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

[garyfl]

just called misco, theyre still awaiting for a proce reduction, there 160 of the 16gb model and 120 of the 32gb so limited stock. theyve had calls since 8.30am ths morning and as of yet over 1000 have phone for a callback

damn

Yet without anyone willing to produce hardware to support it, you think this is still viable?

It's fine to admit you were wrong. There will be future updates for WebOS contrary to what you stated in big capital letters.

PCW have confirmed they are cancelling orders for 32gb this morning (according to HUKD)

Balls. Was hoping my 'preparing for delivery' email was a final confirmation, but now worried again .

 

[Baplad]

Expansys said they don't have any more stock, but are expecting more in in a few days time. They also said they will refund the price difference, so I have pre-ordered 2

does anything come out of your account?

WOO! miitwo is down! I don't understand why companies don't understand that if you advertise on twitter, you need to prepare to open the floodgates!

 

[Leo101b]

That miitwo place is now dead.

 

[Frapple]

Who needs DDoS attacks when you could just tell HUKD that x company is selling y product for z price

Miitwo looked like a scam to me anyways.

PCW have confirmed they are cancelling orders for 32gb this morning (according to HUKD)

What?! Why?

I've got a order confirmation from PCWorld, a delay in dispatch email, and then 2 x order processing emails. AND they've taken the monies.

This whole thing is a sham.

- They should have updated the prices at 3am so they didn't get these stupid site crashes.
- They shouldn't have been so moronic to announce everything on Twitter, just to get themselves a bit more publicity (like they need it - £89 HP Touchpads sell themselves).
- They should have limited it to 1 per customer.

DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE, HDUK POSTERS SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE A COMPANIES HOUSE REGISTRATION AND THE SUPPORT NUMBER IS DEAD!

 

[DIABLO]

Well Miitoo did'nt last long, lol

 

[Sukh]

miitwo isn't a registered company on Companies House apparently.

 

[Gaygle]

DO NOT BUY FROM THESE PEOPLE (MIITWO), HDUK POSTERS SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE A COMPANIES HOUSE REGISTRATION AND THE SUPPORT NUMBER IS DEAD!

Just to reiterate.

 

[gott_sei_dank]

HDUK useful for something then

I know, its pants.

I had all the same emails for a Logitech Squeezebox before and then they cancelled

No... my card is charged when the item is dispatched and I have the option to cancel any time before that
