    The wireless keyboard is only £17.99 at BestBuy. (We paid £22.50 from Best Buy 2 days ago!!!!!) They do a portfolio case too which is only £13.99 but it isn't one that turns into a stand too but it's a good price. They also have the charging dock for £27.99. Might be worth ringing a local Carphone warehouse as we got the HP Touchpad case for £17.50 (The one that folds up into a stand).

    Thanks for this info - have reserved the stuff at BestBuy.

    Unfortunately my experience this morning with CPW has been that stores don't bother to answer their phones - ho well. I'll keep trying

    As far as I know Carphone Warehouse and Currys/PC World have everything half price. That's £20 for the power adaptor, £20 for the case, and £35 for the wireless charging dock (which does plug into the mains on its own.

    In the search for a Case as well.

    Ordered one at Staples on Tuesday when they had just been discounted for £21 and they took the order but only delivered a catalogue the next day. The following day they phone to say they couldn't fulfil my order for the case as they couldn't get anymore from HP (well durhh). Not sure why they would take the order if they didn't have the stock to hand.

    Any heads-up where they might be in stock would be great. Would consider paying up to £30 for official case or if there are GOOD unofficial ones that double as a stand for less than £15 then also let me know. Would be much appreciated.

    Cheers!

    Have a look on ebay, I did see some on there that would probably work nicely.

    Try phoning Carphone Warehouses near you - they are £17.50 for the official HP one.
