    Found this on another website:

    "Just been on the phone to them, (another compnay which cancelled a lot of preorders), apprently they were told they would be receiving stock, but after today speaking to the main supplier they've been informed that a single supplier has agreed to take on all the remianing UK stock(perhaps CPW?)."

    If it is indeed CPW i dont see them selling it for the discounted price they will probably keep it for contract phones that way they make more money

    I fancy one of these as my phone is rubbish. Just wondering as I'm not tech savvy, if webos is not continued by HP, how easy is it to run on Android etc when someone manages it? Is it complicated to change? Thanks

    Depends... XDA developers on the internet have a host of threads dedicated to different operating systems on phones. For sure, it would be doable.... only a matter of time before Android is running on it... worth buying... but there is a risk I guess that Android may not run on it... and you are stuck but I doubt it.

    Mobile Fun have moved its status to "discontinued". That's the second retailer to "give up" today, before it's even formally in stock!

    It says it's in stock at CPW but I don't seem to be able to put one in my basket - maybe after the 10am announcement tomorrow?
