If anyone wants a guide to overclocking their HP TouchPad, please let me know in trust. If it works on mine I'll blogspot the details.

I also don't see how some of these businesses are receiving stock when I haven't even heard of them before

A lot of them are distributors/wholesalers, so who knows where they are going.

That's assuming the numbers are not in tens/hundreds/thousands...

So whats the situ with these apart from scrolling through the pages of chit chat on here and spam on the HUKD forum?

I've been watching these since Tues but not desperate to get one, though i'd take one if I came across one at the prices they have been going for.

Looks like theres more stock on the way in the coming week or so or has this one passed and theres only dregs remaining?

I imagine if it were hundreds of thousands, there would be a decimal place. This at least provides a little bit of hope for those of us who haven't yet placed a touchpad..

I would imagine its cases/pallets, but could be wrong.

A mans wet dream...

Fixed

Oops, this isn't GD

Eitherway, if they have more stock at the price others have paid, sub £100? Then i'll buy one i think

 

[Thorper]

I hope these new ones do materialise...my mum and her partner have seen them in the news/papers and now they NEED them

I NEED them to stop pestering me

I'm usually quite good at cryptics but I am at a loss on that one!

Nice to see rp2000 doing the good deed!

Not sure if it's against the forum rules. Use google and search WESTCOAST Ltd
