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

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

I have one reserved at my local Argos. Will it be full price or at the reduced price??

HP Touchpad is a myth, so based on that, neither.

do they have that many in stock?

 

[Bennie-Mac]

I just got told they dont have them in stock at Harvey Norman Holywood

 

[lay-z-boy]

Anybody getting called for their reservations? Just had purple shirts call extremely eager for me to plump £430 on the 32gb as soon as possible.

harverynorman shows the price, till you click the item, then it goes back up.

Harvey Norman. Cant get on the site though...

Got through and it's showing full price.

 

[Tweaker]

Didnt know you were in to that kind of thing -_-

Lol,

got a text from argos saying i have until the 25th to pick up my touchpad, so even if the drop doesnt come today, im ok

Yea same. The guy told me the Northern Ireland stores never got them in because they "weren't up to scratch in comparison to the iPad". Apparently they "weren't as good quality".

lawlz.

Got through to Harvey Norman's site as well and it shows 99euros but if you click on it theres no stock and it displays the full price.

Could be a good sign, unless it's routine practise.

Hmm, to reserve one at Argos or not?

Why not, you have nothing to lose.

How is that a good sign?

"Oh hai thar, we're going to be heartbroken if you don't buy this 32GB touchpad. No one else will buy it at this price."

If they have stock near you you might as well, all you have to do is give your email address/phone number.

 

[Ringiho]

Will the price go down on collection then on both models?

 

[fini]

Where still has stock to reserve? Argos seems to be entirely 'order in to store'.

I saw that. Seems like a bizarre price change though!

Hmm trying to get him to come buy the pad at full price before they drop it...
