    I got them on line. I had two 16 gb in my basket overnight, and kept refreshing them, and the price had dropped just before 8. I emailed Laskys last night to ask if they would be honouring their price match promise against Comet, Dixons and Currys, and only asked about the 16 gb.

    edit: 16GB is showing as 89.99 on main website now

    edit2: though when you click on it full price (oos anyway)

    Anyone know how it compares to the ipad when it comes to apps for children? Thinking of getting my 9 and 5 year one.
    November wins...a book, a designer handbag (worth £550 :T) and a game. I am now an addict and thank everyone for taking the time to share and post. :D

    I may be wrong but I don't think there are many apps at the moment and as HP are no longer supporting this product unless you change the OS there won't be many.
