You guys are too lucky, and I am sure I speak on behalf of a majority.
Mine had enough juice to plug it in and use it straight away. Update took ages. Now trying to find the official case somewhere, any ideas anyone?
Fuck you guys.
Been playing with it for a little while, about to set up mail sync and stuff like that (my google account uses 2-stage auth so I need to be next to a PC to do it). It's well worth the £80, though, but the selection of apps is pretty dire.

could be possible
So apparently, this is the new shtick. According to SD, Staples has been holding their inventory in their warehouses for the past week waiting for a coupon to expire. Tomorrow morning, the touchpads will be available for order through the in-store kiosks. Basically, you find the stores kiosk, find the product you want, and have it delivered to the store. The only solid supporting evidence is this:

That only just recently popped up. So, if you don't have one by now, showing up to your local Staples tomorrow morning is your best and maybe last chance.
Except for those of you in the LA area. Yup. Don't even try. They'll be all gone. Trust me, I'm totally not trying to thin the heard or anything, that'd just be selfish.
