as far as i know most e-tailers in US selling at the new price are already out of stock...
they all jumped the gun and slashed the price on 19 Aug US time... instead of 20 Aug which HP intended |

QUOTE(rohit12 @ Aug 22 2011, 02:42 AM) i am feeling really pity for all those who have bought hp dv recently..their warranties are still not over yet and they are out of support...i see a lot of second hand hp laptops available in next coming weeks no, warranty issue will juz be transferred to which ever company that takes over HP's PSG department... like wat happened to IBM computers back then... besides, we re at least 12mths away from the time when HP starts selling, they need time (a few mths) to evaluate all potential buyers, and then another few mths (6mths or more) to complete... more than enuf time to use up the warranty... Added on August 22, 2011, 7:23 am QUOTE(mackioes @ Aug 22 2011, 01:34 AM) lets say i have bought the tablet here in malaysia at the normal price...will i get a refund like the US? is HP malaysia going to be responsible too? has it even starts selling in MY? THIS IS REALLY CONFUSING !  This post has been edited by astria: Aug 22 2011, 07:23 AM |

QUOTE(psyeo @ Aug 29 2011, 12:30 AM) And about porting it to Android OS 2.X that gain quite some attention., why the fuss of trying to port the already awesome WebOS to the inferior Android OS 2.x that are meant to be use on the phone? .... Will consider dual boot WebOS and Honeycomb thou the prospect of no future update is the biggest reason to port... Android 2.2 is only the first move... Android 4.0 is the ultimate goal... u'll not see Honeycomb on it since Google never release the code to AOSP... Snapdragon System 3 at US$99, hell even a smartphone can't be so cheap...
