    Wow, you are a sad sad man, ordering something you dont want. :)

    Because its cheap and I like technology. If I like it I'll keep it. If not, I'll give it as a present or sell it.

    hmm I ordered at 12:03 and have the out of stock email from Amazon. Did anyone get sooner and get the same? just trying to work out how far back I am.

    Amazon must have had a few hundred orders at this stage and they are still taking them...I hope this isnt going to be a massive disappointment

    I ordered at 12:09, email says that time, but i had it in the basket for a couple mins while changing billing address, and It says i will be emailed the delivery date, nothing about being Out Of Stock though..

    Awesome, love that shít. Dont have to worry about a screen protector then.

    FYI - I ordered one on Amazon but won't believe it till I see it dispatched.

    There "appears" to be demand for them, so I am going to try a few more websites tomorrow and order. If more then one comes through, Ill sell them here for cost.

    I feel like we are all one MASSIVE family after today's exploits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭superflyninja


    yeah been looking at that, keeps saying out of stock

    So i guess no one will explain (in the thread where this thing is supposed to be discussed) what the big deal is?

    do you know what a HP touchpad is?
