    Alternative (though not as cheap!) would be the ipad 1, 64gb wifi and 3g at currys on offer from £600 down to £399, may get this instaed as it looks a bargain

    The quoted the £600 is the original RRP, won't have been on sale at that price for quite some time. Personally I think £400 is overpriced for 18mth old technology which is not long off become even older when the iPad 3 comes out.

    Isn't the ipad 3 out in about a month?... all ipad 2's will see great price drops in the next few months and drastically before xmas no doubt.

    Why? Ipad 1s are holding their price quite nicely. 32G refurb on Apple Store for £319. Not really a bargain in my book.

    JL have despatched yesterday's stock and I expect there will be posts from people who ordered fro 'collect from store' quite soon....

    Mine still says 'order processing'.....but I (stupidly) selected free delivery. Seriously - what do you think my chances are? :(

    When you make an order with JL stock is allocated to it, it makes no difference if you ordered next day or free delivery, those who ordered next day don't jump the queue. If your order has moved to processing JL are saying your order should be fine. Order processing means the warehouse have your order. They wont be sent out until tuesday now but they all should be sent out tuesday, just those who wanted them sooner will have a different courier service.

    Thank you SB - really hope I get it. I ordered one of the first £89 ones from Amazon - cancelled. So you can see why I'm rather anxious!:beer:

  • Picked mine up Thursday from Argos. Can't remember who suggested ordering one for collection as the price will come down but thanks to whoever it was.

    Any news on the accessories, particularly the touchstone charger. Have a feeling they will materialise with the next touchpads mid september (if that happens)

    My JL order has been despatched as well, good luck to everyone else.

    Now my Dad wants one, just when I thought I could stop all this madness and get back to a normal life.
