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

[Thorper]

has anyone got the link for all the tweeks to make it run better/faster please. Also do you need screen covers as it says they are Gorilla glass, so I am guessing they should be tough..

Tough enough for young hands though?

http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touchpad/293028-new-touchpad-heres-your-get-started-guide.html is one of the links I've seen posted...looks like its down/gone, though you can still view the cached version

My 32GB came today.

MANY MANY Thanks to:

Deusex - For giving me his unused Argos reservation
Darkshadow - headsup on the reservation above
ScoobyDoo69 - My OcUk Courier for Hire who went and picked it up in person for me - In Birmingham (Epic wins! )

A real team effort by OCuK members so, anyone who nay says the boards for what they think is profiteering can GTFO.

Hope you have fun with it and well played ScoobyDoo69
I have made two OCUK members happy that makes me happy

You lot have got me wanting a Touchstone now. I was perfectly happy plugging in the USB cable in but now I find myself wanting one.

I got my email from the dodgy link at 12:34 which is one of the earlier ones ive seen on here and mine still hasn't changed!

What time was yours?

Just checked and my dodgy one from (24 August 2011 12:34:04) is still in progess.

It was my EPP order that is in progress with an ETA of the 16th.

AT £70 they aren't worth it but at £35 they are ace. Just having it as a stand and been able to put it on to charge with no lead to find is magic.

And great for watching movies on.

Insight have Touchstones in as well for £34.99

Can not bear to give Insight any more of my money, allready going to have to do some fast talking tonight as Missus had agreed £150 tops (you would think I would grow a pair) I am going to go with the "it was £150 without the VAT"

Every woman knows that items bought in a sale don't count.
