One small problem, it is a bargain but you need to have a laptop to part ex which I do and the £150 they offer is way more than I can get on ebay.

Laptop comes with windows 7 64 bit professional as well.

Really, really bad day at work and never had time. I had a £200k deal going sour on me and I needed to deal with that.

He's first on my list tomorrow though as I need to buy an i3 laptop from him at £137 before they sell out

Sorry, I have been out all evening and, and so often happens they have increased the prices already, but when I checked earlier the cases were definately £16 including VAT.

Needless to say, still no Touchpads though! :(

Haven't they already announced this, and confirmed that they are all going to the U.S.A... or is this yet another 'final' batch? :confused:

Edit: Sorry... just read the above 'edit' and it looks as if it is! So we might just be lucky after all.

Roll on October! :)

Babs or Bt shop although its on BTdirect business I havent checked the other two but normally stock is the same.

After cashback and part ex its £138 which aint bad IMO for a Samsung and comes with a nifty guarantee

You'll be virtually guaranteed one, at least you will now I've just sold my Kindle to offset the eBay cost of a Touchpad, which I did last night. :eek:

Oh well, I've got a Touchpad on the way now and can maybe now get some proper work done.

Nice! Got account managers for both I believe. They will be getting an email today :) if you could pm me further details, I'd appreciated it. Buying another new toy will surely reduce the pain I feel for so far missing out on a touchpad! :)
