Woot - Touchpad just turned up on the employee purchase page - £379 for the 32gb version

Pre2 arrived on Tuesday as well - my oncall phone - complete with touchstone.

Damn you!

I'm still waiting for the Pre3 pre-orders to crop up, can you contact the right person and tell them to hurry up

That's good to hear!

My order got rejected for the 32gb Touchpad for some bizarre reason. I hope you don't suffer the same fate.

Any release dates for the 3G version of the Touchpad?

August allegedly, was kinda hoping it to be sooner.

[EDIT]Just noticed "Powered by Android™ 2.3 (Gingerbread) & a dual core 1.2GHz processor"

lol seen that as well

Let it be August so we can see those pre3's in person.
at the moment its thickness puts me off...

It looks good but I can't really see the appeal of it unless you must have a hardware keyboard. I'd take one over a BlackBerry for personal use.

 

[shaffaaf27]

the multitasking aswell.

 

[Robbo]

I fear that is going to absolutely rag the battery

 

[shaffaaf27]

as do I, my pre plus gets about hours of contant use, or about 8 -10 hours of normal/idle use. It NEEDS a mid day/end day charge. Aparently pr3 wont have that problem, we will see, but mine is overclocked to 1.2GHz from 500mhz.

my pre lasted better than android phones, but I didnt do crazy overclocks

If I were testing a touchpad under nda right now (which i'm not ofc) i'd say it was charged about 30 hours ago and is down to 50%...

 

[shaffaaf27]

and if you were to make an educated guess, how much of that 30 hours has it been in constant use?

 

[shaffaaf27]

also, considering we are making wild guesses, I will presume that the app catalogue is not being turned on till launch day. What would you say? And if you think its already on, would you say that its competitive?

If I were to guess i'd say unfortunately I not been tracking it that close if I were testing. Supposed to be 10 hours usage.

Wild guess that its not turned on yet. 15k at launch apparently.

 

[shaffaaf27]

hmm 15k. I'm liking the sound of thatm nearly double the current ammount.
