    Had one reserved at Argos until closing this evening, just been but they want the full price and if it does come down in price no refund in difference plus it can not be returned under their 14 day return policy unless faulty.

    but if reserved tonight and not expired you pay the price on the day ;)

    I just clicked off the CPW page with my order number (which I didn't note down) and I've not received an email from them. Has anyone else had an email or should I be worried?

    I was feeling the same but it does come through it just takes ages :P

    There is still loads of stock in distributors you are more likely to get one from an independent reseller if you really want a low performing pece of kit that's not fit for purpose, if you want a cheap tablet there are loads of unbranded models around which will be just as good or possibly better. The HP badge is no guarantee it will perform, that's why they have bombed they don't work properly save your money and get a proper brand that works.

    your comment is not fit for purpose, these things are a steal at this price... and no.. the unbranded ones suck.

    Next you will be telling us you own a ipad right?

    Went to currys digital as i had a reservation from yesterday..

    When i asked to pickup the touchpad i was told that they would not honor the price online because these systems arnt updated until 12 tonight.. so i said can i re-reserve it for tomorow and was told thats not possible but if i pail full price now i could get a refund of the difference tomorow... i decided not to go for this option...

    im off to curry when it opens to see if i can get it tommorow
  • I got an "order received" email but it said it was still subject to "approval" - fingers crossed it all works out. Good luck all.
  • and now just received an email saying they've cancelled the order - gutted!

    Finally got an email "subject to approval". Fingers crossed :j

    This will sicken the Ex as he'd been after a tablet for months and now I've gone and got one at a bargain basement price!!

    Good luck to the others who are waiting. I still have one 'reserved' at Argos for this weekend so may have a reservation number going spare.
