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

upandcumming

Just a heads up to people.

I'm in NY for the summer and I've just ordered 2 of these for $220.
HP have discontinued the Touchpad this week and are now letting them go for $99 (16GB) and $149 (32GB).

I know most of you aren't in the USA but treat this as a heads up to get a very good tablet, with Flash Player, at a knock-down price.

Unfortunatly there are many items hoolding steady at €200+ with multiple bids, the hoards have spoken.

Come up with that "One click installer" and you might might be onto a winner......patent pending of course:D

People are stupid.

Why spend €300 to get a FrankenDroid when you can just buy a proper Android tablet like a Xoom for a relatively small difference in price.

Gone from Amazon also, looks like Argos is the last place that might have stock.

Just rang them and told them what I thought and he is trying to get order put back to see if they have stock coming.

Not happy at all.

I just got off the phone with Argos again.

My reservation is unlikely to be honoured. The excuse I got is that "there were multiple orders on the same reservation number" :rolleyes:

The guy I was speaking to suggested I ring back to speak to the manager later this afternoon.

illumin

amazon order gone. totally gutted.

If anyone has it in their heart to sell me one at cost price i would be much obligued. :mad:

How is it funny that our orders have been cancelled??

mp3ireland2

Reserved one on expansys yesterday afternoon, not too optimistic they'll get stock etc. However this is the reply I got when I queried my order today. I opted to bay by bank transfer, to ensure my card didn't get charged.

"Hello,

for the moment we do not know the price as our suppliers don’t offer it at discount prices at least not at this time so your order is on hold till we will have the confirmation.

You card has not been charged but the money has been reserved according the value of the order.

we are in talks with suppliers right now but some far we got no reply or confirmation about this from them or HP directly if they will honour this rebate.

If this is confirmed, we will contact all backorders and let them know the new price as soon as we will have confirmed information and asked them to RE-confirm the orders before shipping them out.

Best regards

Sounds like it's been cancelled.

im not expecting them to call me, but they should at least send me an email, they have no problem doing that every week listing their 'bargains', confirming orders etc. ehh... seems that there is no tablet for me as expansys want to charge me 430, amazon canceled and things are not looking too well with fnac too

Why pay top dollar for an Android when you can get the much superior WebOS for a fraction of the price...?

Honestly, some people aren't very informed...

P.s. DOn't feed the troll!!

Weird that Amazon didn't provide any email notification of cancellation

Is it just the machines in Argos that are acting up with no order or are they really out of stock

Standard Toaster

Hopefully Argos honor mine, due for collection this Sat (thanks bluemachaveli!)

Is this any use to anyone?

expansys looking to get more in, no doubt they will.

partyatmygaff has been practically spamming for someone to give up theirs to him as hes a dev working on getting android on the Touchpad!

I doubt they're cancelled, it's probably just a glitch on the site as surely they're automated systems would automatically dispatch an email upon cancellation

Plenty of stock in the boot of the managers' cars

Most people should resign themselves that getting a €99 Tablet at this stage is a pipe dream. You need to be extraordinarily lucky because there simply is nowhere near enough supply to meet the demand.

Makes sense... Either that or he reckons his IQ went up sharply once Amazon cancelled his order!!!

If Amazon can't get any more in stock then it doesnt bode well for FNAC, and especially not Expansys.

They do it all the time unfortunately. Happened recently with a 1TB USB drive that was mispriced. No explanation, no apology, nothing, order just vanished.

So should I enquiry?

Order disappeared on amazon too. Just sent them an email about it...

Doodah7

Re the Amazon deletions. Some guy on hotukdeals apparently rang Amaxon and told him that all orders are cancelled after 3 days if they have no stock or no idea when they will get stock.

Game might very well be up if the likes of Amazon can't source any more stock...

Update from amazon

When we contacted the supplier for an update they informed us that they won’t be able to source this item.
As we can’t supply this item, it has been cancelled from your order and you have not been charged for it. Cancelled orders no longer appear in your order history.
