  • Very impressed with the service, ordered saturday and delivered today on free delivery service. Very chuffed. Thanks again to those posting the offers. I hope all still after one manage to get one.

    If anyone manages to find any of the accessories I would be grateful if the deals are posted here too if that is ok, cannot find them for love nor money.
    Comping wishlist for 2017

    Odd how Argos said it was a glitch especially when product is difficult to get even worse Argos have not even had the decency to tell people via email. I wonder how many other products had glitches or was it some one having a laugh at folks expense because they are desperate to get one

    You could always try HP Direct:-

    http://h40059.www4.hp.com/uk/homelaptops/internal/touchpad.php?id=FB368UA&experience=direct

    It states a 2 week wait for the Touchstone though......might be worth a shot.
    Some days you're the bird......and some days you're the statue :cool:

    Still searching for a Touchpad but without any success.. saw this message on We Are Electricals site, guess it says it all for those of us not lucky enough to secure a Touchpad.


    HP Touchpad (16GB/32GB) Update
    From the Director,
    Due to issues with our distributor, we are not able to offer the HP Touchpad for sale.
    We feel disappointed that a brand such as HP did not consider the ramifications of its actions last week, nor plan for the reasonable demand for its units. We also feel disappointed that eBay sellers were the big winners in this pricing war, and that the end user (yourselves) have largely been left high and dry by the big retailers who didn't implement any per-customer restrictions.
    We worked tirelessly over the bank-holiday weekend to try to source the HP Touchpad for yourselves, but to no avail.

    Just phoned up Argos, apparently they have no record of my order, and sometimes they can experience these types of problems.

    This is a HUGE scam I followed this closely ALL morning via the HDUK thread and initially they claimed there were supposed to receive 900 from an supplier (turns out its the same supplier for DSG) and then when it came to crunch time to tweeted that the supplier sold all the stock internally funny thing was somone contacted the supplier and ask about it to which they responded they made no such deal and would be investigated suffice to say WAE promptly deleted all there tweets relating to this supplier but not before a handful of people got some screenshots and emailed them over to the company ;)
