Yay my order *****44*4 has
Just gone to stage 2. Is it just me but making a call to cfw seems to push it along? Will be ready 25th aug it says

It seems people phoning (or ordered on the phone) are being accelerated. No way 4xxx should be dispatched as 2xxx (some) and 3xxx prders have been cancelled.

So where's everyone ordering from now? Or are these all old orders coming through?

Goddamn, my mum and dad are desperate for one of these after seeing mine. Gotta go through this ordeal again... By the way anyone heard from PC World? I still have an order there.

This thread is moving too fast for me to backtrack so my 2 points below may already have been covered:


1) CPW have 3 for 2 on accessories, and HP items seem to be included in it. Basically you don't pay for the cheapest item. I bought 1 touchstone (£35) and 2 official cases (£17.50 each) and only got charged for 1 case. Might be a good deal if you need multiple accessories (The keyboard or international charger was also included, but I did not want those).

2) Can someone summarise the "dodgy HP link" details? Is it people somehow managing to order off the EPP scheme, without being employees/affiliates at a low price?
