HP Touchpad Thread (NO Discussion Of Personal Buying/Selling)

elara & Dabs are dead

do you guys think the touchstone charger is worth it at half price if i can get it? if at some stage we got around to having android on them, would the touchstone charger still work or is it built into the webOS somehow?

Think dabs is bad, check out expansys...dont think it will ever come back up!

Dabs announced they WILL be dropping the price this morning so I guess why its been hit.

• **** We will be publishing another update at 11am *****

We are currently monitoring 30 websites across the UK and Europe to find out whether there are still HP Touchpad tablets remaining and if so whether they have dropped or not.
The websites we are monitoring are Amazon (Germany and UK), John Lewis, Fnac, Insight, Misco, Dabs, Play, Techdepot, Crescent Electronics, Lambdatek, Pixmania, PCW Business, Equanet, Laptopsdirect, Staples, Dabs/BT Shop, Ebuyer, Argos, BHS Direct, Tesco, Laksys/Comet, Expansys, DSGi and Prepaymania.
At the time of writing (just before 10am), the following websites do not have any stock left; Fnac, Dixons, PC World, Currys, Laksys/Comet, Argos (Pay & Collect), John Lewis, Ebuyer, Techdepot, Pixmania, Lambdatek, Carphone Warehouse/Best Buy and Tesco.

The rest are still showing full price and only Staples, at the time of writing was showing a discounted £89 with free delivery but the site is currently running very slowly.
The Touchpad frenzy crashed other websites yesterday including Equanet and Comet while Argos, Carphone Warehouse and DSGi websites were running extremely slowly.
It is not known when the rest of the other retailers will cut their price, but the fact that so many retailers have literally taken down the Touchpad altogether doesn't bode well for those looking to buy.

16gb - €121.08

good luck!
