Not available through HP

Just the suggested retail price and they are unsure as to why it's been posted....

Cant see them selling many

Also, I bet that the Touchpad sales have come to a standstill since the price went back up.

Don't call HP

Don't bother phoning HP, they'll just tell you they don't have any stock and don't know of any other options.

Useless

Can't even manage not to sell it properly, though it didn't take long to get through on the phone.

Hmmmm.....

Nice tech? Check. Very cheap price for a smartphone? Check. Still not interested? Check. Sure, they may get it to run Android apps, but then why not just buy an Android phone in the first place?

Old News

This site has been live since Wednesday 24.8.11 & has had the £69 price point there. This may be HP's RRP, but when there is no stock, it's worthless anyway.

No stock, no chance

Just called today on the off chance. No stock, no update on availability, basically no chance. Which is a shame really :-(

ASA anyone?

Must be worth reporting to the ASA ???

Other retailer would get hammered for this.

Shame cos I'd like one, especially at that price.....
