Kinda obvious from my first line is it not?
I don't drink ovaltine! :P
Seriously though, for anyone trying to keep tabs on whats going on and where the next shipments are or wheres the best place to keep an eye on, it's VERY difficult to find actual useful posts when you have to keep going to the next page because some knob has been posting pictures of them opening the touchpad box, others crying because they want a reservation code etc etc.
The posts are coming in so fast that it's difficult enough as it is without people getting sidetracked talking about what skins will fit on the TouchPad and what software can be installed on it or what apps they should install first... as I said, it's getting a little ridiculous.
In any other Bargain Alert thread, a mod would've came in and sanctioned people for derailing it but I'm sure it's near impossible to moderate this thread with the sheer volume of posts and I'd rather not report posts on everyone and get people sanctions if they can just stop at their own accord.
That is true it is hard to find out where they are on sale etc but if it was easy they would sell out much quicker.0 -

So Tallaght does have stock then? I asked Argos Helpers on Twitter earlier and they said they were out of stock, reservation or not.Am playing with my 32gb Argos TouchPad now.
Edit: To the last poster, read the past few pages. Android can run on the Touchpad. That said, it will take quite some time to get a stable, fully functional build and even longer to get an even remotely simple install method.0 -

cheers,
would i be optimisitc in thinking the excited rush to buy would encourage development of a stable build
I guess \I need to invest in some wifi
oh and in case any-one not successful so far thinks was just an impulse buy, before my holidays was looking at this and the motorola xoom, its the limited OS/apps thats killing my buzz0 -

Not confirmed yet but a little hope for those that didn't get one. I was speaking to someone from HP who works on the WebOS project at work today and apparently there is still unallocated stock that will be brought in to the pipeline in a week or two. I will get a heads up an let all know if and when this does happen.
Was like music to my ears maybe my dream of getting hold of a touchpad is still alive

Here we go again... can we seriously stfu about sh!t unrelated to the actual availability of the TouchPad? I don't care about how difficult it is to put an Android ROM on a TouchPad if I don't have one... which probably goes for 99% of the people posting on this thread.
If you've got one and you don't have anything beneficial, leave the thread.
If you don't have one and don't have anything beneficial, monitor the thread.
If you have anything remotely beneficial, by all means post it!
It's really that easy! Tired of trawling through all the photos of Argos staff members and other peoples fcking TouchPad boxes...
400,500 of the 401,000 posts on this thread are complete horsesh!t. Wish a mod would just start cutting out posts or something here, it's getting ridiculous.

My mate swears he picked up one of these in the new Argos in Naas.
Says it shows no stock online, but they had 4 or 5 this evening (about an hour ago to be precise)
Dont blame me if he's spoofing though, I'd love one too, but am stuck at home until the wife gets back from work, (1 year old sleeping upstairs)
Anyone confirm?
Your mate is a windup merchant!!!
Even though i knew better, I tore down in the car and ran in to a staff member who proceeded to break his hole laughing at me asking for a touchpad!!
He said they got 5 in and they're all gone. No more will be coming in to argos shops he said.
As for unfulfilled reservations in the naas store and others, he said any unclaimed ones will be snapped up by staff as they're monitoring the online reservations which show up available stock 20 minutes before the shops get the stock updates via their internal systems. :mad:
Tell your mate the bill for the speeding ticket will be in the post!! :P
(I'll settle for a touchpad as part payment!!). 0
Sure did anyone here really need one !!
