    Re: News - UK TouchPad fire-sale confirmed

    still no progress on my amazon orders, it seems to be taking them a while to source the extra stock they believe they can still acquire.

    my confirmation emails were received at 00:07, 00:09, and 00:11, and if the last four digits of the order numbers are any indication then the difference between the first two orders was fifty, but fifteen hundred between the second two!

    Wow, it took me about 60 minutes to get through the purchase process at the Palm Store yesterday. I hope I have some hardware assigned to my order.

    It's reserved until the 1st september.
    If this is not claimed, would you consider other options?

    Re: News - UK TouchPad fire-sale confirmed

    If anyone's interested, HP UK did actually get some in stock for the employee store, and announced so by mail mid-morning. Checked a couple of minutes ago and not only are they saying that there's no stock of the units left, but all the accessories are also gone.

    I managed to get an order in, and got an emailed "order acceptance", so hopefully I can try the TP head-to-head against my Android tablet. And after that, maybe I'll Ubuntu it...

    Anyone know if the accessories are going as fast as the units themselves obviously did?

    Interesting to see some new reviews on the net - these saying that the new owners are actually pretty pleased. Maybe if HP had launched the 32GB at <£300 then perhaps they'd have been in with a shout (not that I think the management allowed anywhere near enough time for the device to find it's feet).

    Career status: still enjoying my new career in DevOps, but it's keeping me busy...

    Re: News - UK TouchPad fire-sale confirmed

    Sorry my reservation has now gone!

    The touchstone is only £30 delivered at staples - so isn't too expensive really..i've picked one up for delivery tomorrow, definitely a "fun" thing to do with this.

    Sorry to hear that. Does this mean you will be using your reservation? If not could I cheekily ask when you're going to descide with the code? I know I don't have 50 posts but if you are going to get rid of it I need time to get to the shops. Sorry for being so crude.

    For anyone looking for the Pre 3 I just read this:
    "HP will be selling the Pre 3 through retailers only which presumably means that none will be available through online"
    Don't know how reliable it is though.

    Unfortunately, somebody else has claimed it. I have another reservation in London I'm using tonight.
