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

[Chillimonster]

a little disappointed its the 16gb that's on its way and not the 32gb, but hey-ho, for £89 i'm not that disappointed!

 

[ntemples1]

anyone get their order shipped from Babs? I've got 5 32gb still processing...

From another site;

I thought that would be the case. Lets hope that they can get a load from HP!

Anyone got theirs reserved at Argos, text to 61201 the following:

5086043 <Your Post code>. Argos will text you back the cost of the touchpad and will tell you if it's in stock or not.

text back saying £89! Although no stock

The Argos text reserve system seems to be showing the lower prices but the the online store does not?? So do people who have the reservation wait until the online price is reduced before going into the store??

Well, good news perhaps not. Some news but lot's of if's and maybes.

Oh this is doing my head in! I have just received a dispatch email from Staples for the same order number as the Touchpad but it only says it contains the welcome pack?

Why would they send only the welcome pack via next day courier

oh please god say that the Touchpad is in there as well! It must be!

For those lucky peeps who have one does the Box cloud storage lifetime offer apply to the UK?

Someone in here has already tried it:

My CPW order has arrived and been despatched from the Wednesbury Hub. Not sure if that means i'll receive it tomorrow or on Thursday...

 

[andy85]

From another site;

By "No delivery estimate" she would mean "Not Yet Dispatched" right?

 

[Sin_Chase]

One would assume so.

Yes i made my account from PC then it automatically upgraded once i logged in with the app from the touchpad.

 

[Jono8]

Seriously if this parcel i receive from Staples tomorrow is just a sodding welcome pack i might cry with dissapointment

Thats very odd.


<edit> Seems the in store prices have dropped !
My reserved store is showing £115 from the 32Gig

 

[Raikiri]

Indeed, I'll be going to Argos tomorrow and showing them that text...

do they have them in stock at the store near you?

 

[RoachycaL]

I don't know anything about this device. Is there a way to get Android or Windows on it? I cant imagine many apps being available for it now!

tbh Argos have made the system unfair by allowing people to extend their reservations. They should just allow 24hrs reservations like they do on all of their other items. I am sure all store stock has now been reserved nationwide by dealhunters and people using stock checker websites and those people have extended their reservations so are sitting pretty until the price drop is announced.
