These any good?

Have never even looked into them or considering them as I guess I am a brainwashed Apple Consumer.

I might be able to source one through work at a considerable knock down price.

any comments/experience on them?

thanks.

I don't know much about them TBH, except that you will find them cheap as HP are going to stop making consumer computer products now - so I guess the disties are trying to shift their stock of them at knock down prices.

Yep apparantly support for Web OS is going to continue.

I could have got the 32GB for £109 (the retail is £479)

but was too slow..

Have you been under a rock Seth?

It's been discontinued, they sold them all off at that price.

You work for HP don't you Seth, good company to work for?

Hotukdeals were all over this deal, and as a result they sold out.

Your contributions are are useful as ever you fucking Cybernetic Organism

So they sold them to the Public at that price? I very much doubt that but if your neural net processor tells you that then it must be correct.

Yes I work for HP. HP Enterprise Services, I have no involvement or awarness of what the Consumer Products side of the Business are up to you. It's a pretty fucking big ass Organisation

I heard that Web OS was still going to be supported and that Web OS had been positively recieved thus I asked for comments on the Touchpad to determine if it may be useful.

Will your mainframe have any downtime this christmas you fucking machine?

Yes, sold to the public for that, was massive here and in the US.

They've just offloaded another batch in the US I think.

What part of enterprise services, not MOD is it?

This was started of by an employee this morning with regards to a rumour that there are still Units available.

There are emails flying around all over the place, this is ridiculous.

Like shit off a shovel due to the price. I tried at Staples, Comet, PC World... all had sold out almost instantly.

I get the feeling the "employee exclusive" email offer was a bit exaggerated!

I am going to buy John an emotion chip to integrate into his neural net so that he has rage attacks and responds to insults

I got a 16gb one from Carphone Warehouse for £90ish during the price cut madness.

Pretty decent tbh. WebOS is a cracking OS.. Just a shame there's not more apps. Although WebOS going open source may help that now.
