anybody know how reliable these reports are?
a December 7th release date would be amazing.
That would be great, hurry up Sony!
Sony is said to be shipping X1a to retailers (best buy) starting Dec. 1st. So 7th should be somewhat accurate. As for the 799.99 price tag, I would probably hold off and look at other retailers, specifically online for a much lower price than a big box store. Case and point... HTC touch diamond US version (GSM) sells in bestbuy stores for 699.99, online its 549.99. I wouldn't be surprised to see the X1a sell for around 600 dollars at online sellers (mobilecityonline etc.)
Still, expect them to show up around the same time.
I have i9000 and would like to buy Samsung Galaxy tab as soon as possible.
I need to have at least one pcs in September.
I found few links:

there is no information about availability but I expect answer from them. 899$
there is none on ebay yet.
Sorry to burst you bubble, but the prices aren't yet confirmed, and I'm near certain that they will be released by mobile carriers first. Clove and expansys have had them listen for some days now, and indeed probably since the announcement, but they are guessing at the prices. As for delivery date... Well they might have a concrete date for delivery, but I don't think there has been anything from samsung that we know of, so they could be guessing at that too, since we know 'early october'.

I found one more galaxy tab seller.
http://www.gummobile.com/phones/Samsung_P1_Galaxy_Tab_16GB_Android_Tablet.aspx
or their store on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/Samsung-P1-Gala...MobilePhones_MobilePhones&hash=item35ac0f0865
looks like first delivery will be in october. But their ebay account say that they already sold 3 pcs.

price confirmed
in clove site just post this after their address
viewnews.aspx?content=C02C0AE6-AAAC-40FC-9D63-32FBE69CFE2B&category=CATEGORY2
Just because they put a standard sticker on the page saying ' price confirmed' in no way means that its true. Its just to get people to pre order from them over anyone else.
They is STILL no official announcement on price.

There is no rush to buy this, you are better off waiting, there will be excess supply for at least a few days after pricing is announced. You aren't catching any better deals by rushing either, just asking for price gouging.
ummm...
i am thinkin about going to koria
is that any good - graping the device-wise -
If I recall correctly, the device is coming to the EU first anyway, so going to korea might not actually speed anything up at all. Also, although I couldn't speak to the exchange rate, but since Korea is likely to be a hot market, the prices could be artificially high at release, so keep that in mind to.
Its also worth to keep in mind that the Korean version will be CDMA (ie like a verizon/sprint devce) and not a GSM one, which will mean that you won't be able to use the mobile data connection in Europe at all because it won't have the right radio.
I would like to buy one pcs no metter what praice is. Even if is 1000euro. But really need that device before the others.
I am sure that some pcs will be ready on market before others. Probably like late September. But on stock's world wide will be from 15 October.
1000$ on amazon.co.uk

have you seen their ratings?
Hi,
do we know, when the Xoom comes out in Europe (especially in Germany) finally?
no announcement yet on it. but if you look at the xoom US price it is quite cheap in euro's if you inport one once GSM or wifi version comes out
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/news/coming-soon/motorola-xoom-3g
Expected April 2011
3g version sold by CPW & Bestbuy
Wifi version to be sold by DSG (currys, pc world et al)
http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2011/02/17/motorola-xoom-uk-stockists-announced/
omg still 2 month. Maybe Xoom and Samsung Galaxy 10.1 will start at the same time
Good chance that GT10.1 will be in stores next month... at least they are trying to start sales before Xoom hits the shops.
The wait is killing me..!
So PC World UK have a page up for the wifi version
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/motorola-xoom-1316-commercial.html
Looks like they will be asking £449.99 for it
http://www.reghardware.com/2011/03/01/motorola_xoom_dixons/
Article also mentions Germany........
"CW expects the 3G Xoom to arrive in April. In Germany, T-Mobile has the tablet's availability pencilled in for the end of that month. "

T-Mobile will have the Xoom available at the end of April. It will cost €699.95 and will be available exclusively at T-Mobile for the first 3 months.
http://www.xoomblog.com/t-mobile-germany-deutsche-telekom-announces-xoom-pricing-3-month-exclusivity/
Now they start the "exclusive per carrier"-crap like in the US, in Germany too.
Xoom for T-Mobile and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 for Vodafone?!
keep refreshing that pcworld/currys page waiting for the pre-order for £450 to open so I can order myself one... ::sigh::
I thought it'd be a good idea to separate the docks from the main thread. For those of us who were fortunate enough to already receive a 16GB tablet, our next step is to locate a keyboard dock
Post any information you find in here! I have my Page Monitor in chrome set to autorefresh product links from about 4 stores right now

Great idea! I need me a dock!
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
good idea man. I have the tablet and the sleeve on the way so all i need is the keyboard
Amen, those docks are elusive... I actually have a friend in Taiwan who's gonna look around locally for me to see if there are any US version docks over there. I'll update if I here back that there are some...
Awesome thread idea. Now which one to pre-purchase from...
Good idea! any idea on when the keyboard docks will be available?
I've had a preorder in for the dock on Amazon since they first listed it (the night of the midnight release). I preordered the dock and the tablet from them but cancelled the tablet because Bestbuy.com actually had one to sell me that night while Amazon.com was out of them before I made it through the whole order process.
I imagine Amazon's backlog of preorders for the dock is pretty huge by now.
Of course, if anyone else can actually confirm a shipping unit out to me before my Amazon preorder ships I'll cancel that as well, but I suspect the dock will be really, really difficult to find for a while, though it is kind of puzzling as to why (as cool as the dock concept is, the dock is a fairly straightforward piece of electronics compared to the tablet).
AFAIK the dock hasn't actually sold a single unit retail yet, the only copies I've heard about were the ones sent to reviewers.
Thanks for putting up this thread. Really getting frustrated with the total lack of nws from ASUS about the dock. Sure, they're out of tabs, fine, but do they really have zero keyboards to go out with the tabs they did ship to the usa? It is ridicukous. Here's hopibg we get some news and a big pile of docks very soon.

I'll post my experience if it helps anyone. I ordered my dock from AmericanTV when they were selling it as a pre order on the 23rd. Was able to snag it for just under $140 shipped, my credit card has already been charged, but the item has not shipped yet. They sent me a confirmation email for the order that was immediately followed by another email tha said the item was out of stock and would ship once the items became available. At the time, the estimated time was about 2 weeks or so. They also sent me a paper receipt in the mail, but I haven't heard anything else since.
J&R
I had an order at JR.com for both the tablet and dock. But then my amazon order updated, so I canceled by J&R order. But when talking to J&R on the phone, they said they expect to get docks in early May. Since BestBuy website also says Dock available in May, and it is already May, I would expect them to pop up soon all over the place.

Yeah, I've had a pre-order with J&R since 4/26 for the dock as well. I am guessing 2nd week of May we start hearing about these little suckers trickling out. Hopefully I'll get mine soon since its one of the main reasons I got this tablet and am considering selling my ipad...

For the dutch/belgian people looking for a dock. I asked Asus Benelux and they expect the dockings in NL/BE to be available in July.
Anybody knows if they are already delivered in UK?

I also have a pre-order from J&R. Well, my pre-order consists of me walking 30 feet to J&R from work every day to check if it's in stock.
going insane waiting for the dock. but i'm really hesitant to preorder anywhere. i'd prefer best buy or amazon over anyplace else. but honestly probably going to end up preording someplace else if nothing happens at best buy/amazon in a week. can always cancel.
I just put a preorder in on B&H. Obviously no one is shipping these yet but hopefully in the next week or so we'll see some start going out. Now that I've finally got my tablet on the way, I guess it'll make waiting for the keyboard dock a little less stressful. Talk to me in a week though!
At this point I just want to get one on order, since nobody has recieved on in the US yet who do you guys think is the best bet for pre order?

There is someone on Ebay selling over 20 of the keyboard docks for $169 shippied with an ETA of May 13, that's not a bad price or delivery date. But wouldn't that indicate that availability for others should be around the same time?
I'm tempted to buy it.

it's actually excalliberpc. they charge $150+shipping on their real site so on ebay they're charging $170 with free shipping.
I have one preordered at fry's, lets see.
Does anyone know when Staples is getting the Iconia? I've got credit from returning my GTablet and think the Iconia is the next tablet for me.
Someone on the phandroid forum said staples is suppose to get them this week. Funny how they have the case, but not the tablet and best buy has the tablet but not the case.
I have $50 at best buy so I'm waiting for the case from them.

Wait, staples is going to sell the iconia? I thought it is Best Buy exclusive
Staples in Sorrento Valley San Diego has a display up (dell streak and Iconia). I went at lunch looking for the folio case. Guy said they only got the tablets in but no cases. I didn't verify exactly if they were in or not because I bought mine last night.
Best Buy has an exclusive through this week and Staples will start selling them on Sunday. Most stores have stock already, but can not sell until Sunday.

Verified. Went there this morning and bought the case, it wasn't even on display yet. The tablet will be up for sale Sunday at the same price as Best Buy.
Sweet! I just checked next week's Staples Ad and it has the Acer Iconia Tab it in! Should be available Sunday as a few people have mentioned.
Just so you know target is getting it too, not just best buy and staples, thats the one i'm waiting for because i get my employee discount ^_^
