but does amazon have shipment to MY?

doesn't mind if it is now ready to run honeycomb or not
the spec seems similar to a smartphone running android
so there is possibility there if put effort into in
*
that i'm not sure about. i'm not even sure if hp site delivers outside us :P

not too sure what you mean with the latter bit of your comment since afaik honeycomb would be android's tablet os, so.. why.. would you want say gingerbread to work on it instead?

my confusion is genuine, i assure you as i dont really follow android's dev.



QUOTE(AlexLai @ Aug 20 2011, 11:54 PM)
Like most economical tablet ever if Honeycomb is ported over!
I think they do ship over here but the shipping cost is murder.

i didn't even look at the specs, tbh. all that was running in my head was shiny. eh less than 100usd? ordered lol ._x

but could you bare the fact that you're paying 180usd more than others?

even those that bought the touchpads at the "normal" prices are getting refunds iirc

any idea if there'd be any issues if i were to get my cousin to mail me the touchpad here?

since it's set to be delivered to my apt state side and if there WILL be issues (in other words another unwanted visit to SIRIM) i'd have to wait till end of sept for her to bring it over ,_,

the last time i was at sirim, i was angry, confused, baffled, confused, gobsmacked and did i mention confused? at how i needed to register my jawbone WHICH i forgot to bring back with me and had asked my cousin to mail to me because it was a telecommunication device?


ninja edit*

what would a touchpad be? alat skrin berkilat sentuh dengan abiliti selular tanpa wayar ?_?

basically same as the one i ordered at hp's site. stayed the same way for 10 odd hours till i finally called them to confirm my us billing / shipping address and all that noise.



ninja edit*

try calling b&n to confirm your billing/shipping addresses? it might help.

i asked in the previous page but there were no answers;

any idea if there'll be issues if i were to get it shipped here? (specifically with SIRIM)

because if there is i'd have to wait till mid sept for my cousin to bring it with her.

i thought if we mark it as gift and value less than 500 then kastam cant kacau?

that's what i thought as well. when i forgot to bring back some of my stuff earlier this.. mwell summer, i got my cousin to mail them to me. among the stuff was my jawbone. my cousin described them as "gifts". (this was via fedex) next thing i know fedex rang me up and said one of the things sangkut dekat kastam kerana merupakan alat telekomunikasi.

i was like ha?

sirim with full detail of the device > wait > get letter with some number > inform fedex > fedex informs customs > customs gives greenlight > fedex ships > sirim says i need to bring in the device to be checked in > turns out that "some number" is just so i could get it INSPECTED. shakehead.gif

i only have one person coming back from the states though. (decided i'm not going to risk another trip to sirim by having it mailed)

she could prolly carry 2 at best in her bag claiming they're gifts but more than that would be less conspicuous, lol.
