    If your referring to my post, it's a link to the HP site itself. Click it, it won't bite!

    With so much speculation going on I can't see why HP would list it at £69 on THEIR OWN website and not follow through.

    Only downside is you can't order it from there :(

    Hello,

    Been following this for a while and found a nice little update:

    Could be popping up for £69 soon :)

    Has anyone called to confirm this with them by any chance?

    Yeah, been that price on the web for a few days now. Casnt remember what they say when you call, but it is something along the lines of they dont have any and dont know if they will, its a recorded message.

    Yep, well £10.50. Mine was delivered around half an hour ago but it's going straight back.

    There is no way on this earth they are charging me £10.50 a month for 24 months for a £49 phone.

    A CPW boycott is in order, will teach them a lesson for buying the remaining Pre3 stock, refusing to sell it at the reduced rate and instead do them on contracts only.

    Have you opened the box and played with the phone? If so, what are your thoughts on the phone?

    Obviously £49 would be a great price, but how does it compare with other smartphones?
    :cool:
