Just thought i'd get this thread started. No sites found so far.
It's on websites, it just comes back as not existing. So far seen it on the following sites:
Comet: http://www.comet.co.uk/p/Tablets/buy-ASUS-Eee-PAD-TRANSFORMER-BUNDLE-Tablet/717711 which says discontinued but isn't available through normal product selection I found it via google. The product code 717711 is however the code on their systems.
PC World: It's available to select but then says it's no longer available
Amazon: Released June 1st
Laskys: Showing as Temporarily out of stock
Will follow this and update if either Comet or PC World receive any next week as I get 10% off both through my work so only really checking them. I have a mate who's a sales manager at the local PC World store and is going to phone head office and find out what's happening so will let you know when I hear.
Ebuyer.com also have the bundle on their website, with the same ETA as amazon.co.uk: 1st of June
It shows up on amazon.fr with a "coming soon" message.
A lot of Swiss websites have it listed (digitec.ch claims a late June date ETA for the dock, while others have a late May date, around 27-31).
Just a suggestion: it would be nice to modify the first post in this thread to include links to all websites listing it along with the ETA currently announced on each of them.
Anybody knows a good place to get a seperate keyboard? I read on the Asus UK FB that the retailers only ordered bundles, but are there still some (e-)shops that have them? I checked Amazon, Carphone Warehouse, Comet, Ebuyer, Laskys and PC World but they all sell bundles or tablets...

I hate to contradict you but nobody is selling the bundle in Europe as of now. They have it listed on their site but it's either not available for order or you can just pre-order (with an estimated availability date of 1st of June). The dock itself I've only seen in Switzerland, at digitec.ch, for 129 Swiss francs (~100 EUR, ~90 GBP).

That's what I meant, I know they don't ship the bundles out yet.
Thanks for the tip, Digitech seems to have a reasonable price. Downside is availability expected late June. Hopefully in those two months I've obtained one already!
laskys.com have both the tablet only and the bundle in stock, for those of you living in UK. They don't do international shipping unfortunately
Hi,
Scan are also showing pre-orders on these, with no date known: -
www DOT scan DOT co.uk/search.aspx?q=TF101
first post so no links for me.
Feels like i've been here for ages tho, read the entire bricked transformer thread to try and put me off. Still searching tho.
Comet are now showing delivery in 10 days of the bundle?
Comet are selling the bundle again for delivery on the 16th of May.
Asus Finland confirmed on a email that transformer Scandinavian keyboard should be coming out May.
Verkkokauppa.com is saying that they will have 16GB transformer+scandi keyboard package in 3-5 weeks.
I have just ordered with Comet for delivery on the 16th of May and cancelled my Amazon preorder as they still cannot say when they will be able to supply my order. I asked them where I was in the preorder queue to get an idea of timescale and they said they couldn't even access that information - useless.
At least if I have an issue with the unit supplied from Comet I can take it back to my local store as opposed to having to send it away to Amazon and wait for weeks.
Good find on Comet, I'll go in the local store tomorrow and see if they've got an update on stock coming in to the store as my discounted vouchers can't be used online.
annoying that you cant cancell your order on comet, ive already bought the non keyboard version, and now the have the keyboard version avaliable.
Laskys - in stock from 10th delivery 16th May?
Spoke to Laskys.com (UK) - expecting tablet/dock bundle on the 10th May and posted (free at the mo) for 16th same as Comet IIRC - if you go through Topcashback you get £15 cash back !!
Went into Comet today and got my first hands on with the tablet only and has confirmed I definitely want one I managed to connect it to my SGSII WiFi and gave the guy the product code for the bundle so he checked on the system which said stock is coming into the distribution center on 10th so will be in store by 16th or 17th which is why delivery from the site is that date too.
Anyone who ordered dock from Asus got it yet or been informed when they will receive it
sent from my E Pad Transformer........without a leedroid rom :-(

Thanks testicle! i went ahead and ordered. through topcashback. Delivery date estimate is currently for the 15th of May

Not to be nitpicking but the UK is in the EU just so you know OP.

2 weeks ago, Sandisk announced that it was shipping an 8GB MicroSDHC card. Since then, I haven't heard anything. Many retailers show the card, but the stock indicators show pre-sale or out-of-stock. Does anyone have any information on U.S. availability?
Elite Electronics shows them coming in next Monday the 26th. They're already available in the UK.
and what about the samsung ones? (class 6)
It's showing on Expansys.com and Expansys.ca
Despite their web site showing these as in stock no-one has received anything from this shop yet and a number of orders have been cancelled by email.
There's a thread on Modaco.

I ordered one from Elite Electronix about a month ago and last week got this response when I asked for a status update:
"These units should arrive, and ship on November 26th. This is the revised ship date we have received. Thank you."
I also placed an order with Elite in mid-October and have been awaiting its arrival. Sounds like it may be delayed even more if the UK stocks haven't arrived. Bummer.
Here in Sweden/Halmstad one store has got them today
I've been following 3 other UK stores with similar prices, all of them hint at very close delivery dates:
MemoryBits - Expected "end of Nov"
Insight - Expected "Tomorrow", date updates everyday
MobiMemory - "expected 5-12 days" has been like this for at least 5 days.
A shop in Germany just let me know they'd ship it mid Dec.
does anyone know what speed Class these cards are?
SanDisk 8GB is supposed to be class 4.
Bought mine @ Circuit City's Verizon Kiosk
Verizon has them for $129.99. Works fine in my Cingular 8525 WM6.
This might help...

Funny, Can't find them in stock on-line anywhere, but I also dropped into a Verizon kiosk at Circuit City and snapped one up as well. Thanks for the tip! It does show C4 on the card.
Verizon does have them online for $129.99 with free shipping. Add tax and you're looking upwards of $140.
In Holland you can buy them in various places for about 90 euro's. I have one myself and they work great.
Thanks for the Verizon/Circuit City tip! Snagged one up finally - can't believe a brick and mortar has these over online retailers!
I picked one up today at my local Verizon store, and have cancelled my order with Elite Electronix (placed 45 days ago).
It seems Best Digital offer the chepaest price and also HTC Direct. I am wondering if it is best to order through HTC Direct rather than someone I never heard of (Best Digital) in case you need a refund or return.
Also the shops in Tottenham Court Road in London may be a good place to buy and haggle for cash but I am guessing if a fault devleops in the phone, they won't exchange or give you hassle unlike dealing through reputable companies like Play.com, HTC Direct etc etc. I want to pay under £450 as over £500 is way too much for a phone.
I so want one now and HTC Direct says they will get stock in in under 2 weeks (31st Sept) whereas others say mid November. I have told myself after buying this phone I wont buy another phone again as this really seems to the best phone ever in what I want from a phone.
I just don't know who to preorder with or just wait and haggle in Tottenham Court Road.
Who are you pre-ordering with or have you already preordered?
tboy2000
I ordered it at www.digitec.ch.
BTW, it looks that they updated the delivery date to early november for the english version, up to end of november for the italian version...keep ready...
Never dealt with HTCdirect, and just in case you were wondering, they are NOT htc themselves, they are just a shop.
Expansys are usually ok, apart from the odd occasion where they buy dodgy grey import stock and sell them to get to the market early, and you end up with warranty issues.
Devicewire.co.uk are owned by brightpoint so they are usually pretty quick out of the gate with stock, and a good guide for the proper retail price and release date.
If you want to buy on TCR in London, then INKINO is your best bet. they are very good and knowledgeable and happy to help. There is another one around there that is owned by handtec (I think) and they can't get you out of the door fast enough once they've taken your money, and refuse to do anything to help if there's a problem. Best to avoid them like the plague....!
I order it yesterday here : http://www.pixmania.com/fr/fr/1761264/art/htc/pda-phone-touch-hd.html
My preorder has been in with Clove.co.uk for weeks now (over a month). It was £590+ (inc. tax) when I placed the order and it has dropped to £523 inc. tax now ....I hope they charge me the lower price when they do finally ship!
The site is still saying price and availablity TBC but they are also saying it is expected 11-Nov.

They buy their stock from Brightpoint UK, so they nearly always say the day after devicewire/Brightpoint....Surprised they haven't updated their date to the 1st of November yet. These two companies are only a couple of miles apart in Bournemouth and Poole.
I'll probably be ordering with Expansys USA.
I ordered at expansys germany. I guess they will be the first to get HTCs new device..
We'll see...

Amazon.de has a very good price. The guys from a german o2-Shop said, that the HD will cost about min. 700,- Euros without a contract.
nick
I don't know who are you guys going to preorder the Touch HD from but I just saw a broshure from one of the big mobile phone sellers here in Bulgaria and the HD was listed as avaliable and at a good price!!! 1299lv. Or 650 Euro! This is verry interesting and I'll check it monday when the shops open! Keep fingers crossed!
I get mine as a present, but know that official German retail is 660 euros. So Amazon incl. shipping is not too bad. I hope the HD lives up to its promises, since it marks my return to the WinMobile world, after exiting with Tytn I.
I'm not good at taxes and all this ...
If I'm in USA and want to buy HTC HD from UK site (e.g. expansys.com) and have it shipped to me in USA .... should I look at
VAT included price of £524.99 or VAT excluded price of £446.80 ?
I understand I can buy from expansys-usa.com, but generally speaking ?
No. You dont have to pay VAT if you are getting it shipped from Europe to the US address. I just bought the Touch HD from one of the UK sites with out VAT.
thanks a lot
I have a general question similar to this. I leave in Minn..but I notice that expansys has the Blackstone available now....can I order it from this site? They will ship to Minn.?
Sorry if this is a dumb a## question. but I'm about to drop a lot of money and just want to make sure its safe.
yes, Kenjari, expansys will ship to the usa. I, myself have ordered one from clove on wednesday and expecting deliver tomorrow or monday.
my total came out to be 750 ish w/ 16 gb micro sd.
Thanks copualt3. I looked at clove's site. I did the conversion. It came up to $616.98 total Is this how much you paid for it? Why is expansys charging damn near $200.00 dollars more?
How did you come up with $616 ?
£445 is approx $700, no ?
I used this online convertor. http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi
So it might not be as accurate as I thought. But I went to clove and set up shipping and everything. Got the total amount and went to that convertor. Thats what it came up with.
i ordered DHL shipping + the 16 gb micro sd so that's an additional 50-70 euro.
expansys likes to charge more than their competitors.
I also ordered from Clove and was to receive the phone Monday am, but today received an Email from FedEx that there was a delay. Clove needed to send them more info.
"A complete Telecommunications Form is required" is what caused the delay.
That may be a customs thing. I forwarded to Clove and hopefully they can quickly fix this.
Just an FYI for fellow Americans...

How much do they charge?

You have to ask your own Indian government how much they will charge you. It has nothing to do with the UK.

Hi,
Anyone in the USA gotten theirs delivered from a UK site yet? Were there any US taxes to be paid? What other procedures are there besides just ordering it off the website (this telecom form) ? Thanks in advance for the info!!
I'm about to push confirm on Clove.co.uk site to order my Htc HD. However, the website doesnt specify, which language am I ordering? As anyone ordered from Clove? What language is it in...is it WWE? Lastly was there a 2 year warrant that came with it?

I odered mine from expansys (UK site) on Nov. 10th. No VAT, no CA sales tax, no custom forms, HD was shipped via DHL and was here on Thursday, Nov. 13. This time frame included a little hassle, as expansys USA took over (actually wanted to) and I told them I want it shipped directly from the UK. USA price was quite a bit higher, I think $799 phone only.

I ordered mine from handtec.co.uk for $706 USD total.
I ordered it on an Friday and received it on the following Wednesday, 4 working days. They ship via Fedex so Fedex called me then emailed the FCC form.
See link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445804
A bit of a hassle as Handtec only takes Google checkout for payment. They weren't proactive on providing a tracking number but I spoke to them on the phone and they were very responsive. All in all a good experience.

STAY TUNED ! Just got my Samsung Galaxy 7.7 P6800 Baby in my Hands
Good lookin out. However I was on an Australian forum...you'll have to Google search Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 forum to find it but there were a few members that found Australian retailers selling below $500.
For you prospective US buyers, Negri so far has had the lowest price I've found (their price include shipping) and is in the $570 range. Still pricey.
But really not much more than the 8.9 and you get so many more features on the 7.7.
I'm ordering this tab this weekend....can't wait finally to have it in my hands!!!

The part that Negri doesn't mention is it's the Hong Kong version and doesn't come with a US AC plug adapter.I already had one so no big deal for me.

Hey, thanks for all the info ..I ordered a P6810 (WiFi only) from Negri today. Same price with the coupon at check out for $542 US w/free shipping. Great tip on the coupon, really appreciate the that!!
If this doesn't come with a US AC adapter where does one find one at?
Also since it's the Asian version, I guess it comes with Chinese language as the default? A setting change I presume at set up. However do you know if the keyboard will be in Chinese as well?
They say they are sending directly from Nevada, so I am in Florida right now...will see how long it takes.
For those of us with the WiFi only, an option you have is to get a personal "MiFi" hotspot. I got mine as a pay as you go device from T-Mobile. I can connect at 4G LTE speeds most of the time with my old tablet. I just top off the MiFi when I know I will be on the road.
Yes DO NOT buy from SimplyElectronics.. trust me.!
I had a US power adapter included with my purchase given to me by the cell dealer.
Also once the settings change has been made everything including the keyboard will switch to the selected language.

No seriously, just search the web and find us one guy who has already received his Galaxy Tab 7.7 from Simply Electronics! They claim to have stock since a few months but everything that I've read even recently, tends to show they don't have any in stock.

You'll just need a 2 prong AC cord to replace the big 3 prong one. They are like $3-$4 on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?rt=nc&LH_PrefLoc=1&_nkw=2 prong ac cord&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m283

Why not buy here?

bye
with paypal, no risk
thats just wifi version
Thanks! I actually mentioned that being the Asian version of the 7.7 it would require a U.S, AC plug adapter. Negri said they would include it in the box with the tablet.
I got confirmation of the order, and confirmation of the shipping with a FedEx tracking number. I should receive the tab on Thurs 1/26. This is within the time expected for the "free" shipping option I chose when I ordered from Negri.
I also ordered the OEM Samsung case for the 7.7. Thanks for the recommendation on that vendor (http://www.thecellguru.com/Products/62515) it wwas the best price as well. Also got an order confirmation and shipping tracking order from them as well.
I ordered my original SGT 7" from Simply Electronics. They were the cheapest place at the time. I think I paid around $630 last year. Anyway, I received it very fast by DHL.
My only problem/concern was that they don't tell you that the item is coming to you from Hong Kong. I had a problem with one that I bought from eBay first that I thought was coming from the U.K. It had a lot of Korean Apps. I think that it had been flashed as the package came from Slovakia.
So, when I got the one from S/E, and saw that it also had a lot of Korean Apps on it, I contacted them and they said that they try to send version that are for the correct country. They also offer a one year warranty. The only problem was that I had sent both of my tablets to Samsung Repair Centre in the U.K. to have them flash it to the correct English versions(I bricked the first one by flashing the wrong CSC).
So, just from my experience, I didn't have any problems and had I not already sent it back to the U.K. to have them officially flash them(Yes, I do know how now , I could have sent it back to Simply Electronics and they would have sent me a U.K. version. So, I think they are pretty legit from my experience. As they always say, YMMV.
Hope that helps in any way one way or the other.
Update for guys looking to buy from Taiwan. Don't buy from 23port. He doesn't have the phones available, he takes your money and then waits for Asus to get them in stock. This is the email response I got from him about my purchase
"We have received your payment on Mar. 28, and we will check the available time with Taiwan ASUS and update you soon, and we will provide tracking number after shipment. Please kindly note. Have a nice day."
I contacted eBay after that and they are taking action against his listing since in their words "he is luring people in to buying an item he doesn't have, without stating it's a preorder and that he doesn't actually have the item".
Just wanted to give a heads up since I'm now at the mercy of either getting a refund from the seller or waiting until the 7th for buyer protection to kick in.
You might want to ask sellers if they actually have the item in stock, it's not guaranteed that they will answer truthfully, but these guys are taking people's money and sitting on it until Asus Taiwan has stock available. Who knows how long that could be in all honesty.

I ordered from him Thursday and my phone arrived Today. There were two listings. One preorder, the other one showed availability. Not saying this wasn't your case but I had a totally different experience with him
^^
Same here I ordered and got mine in 2 days, FedEx express
Well I ordered the 4GB with 32GB storage for 350 plus 25 fedex shipping. Ordered it Friday morning my time, asked him today about the status and that's when he said he had to contact Asus about the availability and would let me know. None of the ads I've seen by him have said anything about preorder. Maybe when you ordered he had supply but now he doesn't. If he had supply he would have shipped my phone already and wouldn't have said he needs to contact Asus and that he'll update me.

Ohh man not doubting you. Sad that we had different experiences with the same seller. His attention with me was top notch and response time too.

I didn't think you were but some people might. I was hoping I'd have it within two days like every one else but that's not the case I guess. I can't wait weeks to get a phone unfortunately. I'm thinking that some of the other sellers don't have supply either, that's why they're putting the delivery date so far out. They're hoping people will buy expecting delivery in mid April and that gives them enough time to wait for more stock from Asus.

Today, they are dropping it in France. My delivery date was April 1-3. Was surprised at how quickly it got here.

There are some sellers with the delivery date as Apr. 10th-Apr. 21st. Which gives plenty of time for them to wait on new stock while you're waiting for the end of April to get it.

That really sucks. I will tell u this: phone is solid. Only disappointment is the battery cover. Feels like cheap plastic simulating a metal brush finish. Looks like it may break when prying apart to insert sim card and SD. Really glad I got a case for it.

Yeah I've been super stoked to get it since I saw it, sold my OPO and a Note 3, bought my son a Moto G 2014 and myself the ZF2, but now I have to use my son's phone since the ZF2 isn't coming.

I have another warning: Don't buy from OE USA (advertising on Amazon) either. They're selling an entry level ZE500CL as ZE551ML as they specified the phone. Luckily Amazon has good customer protection but you may face a lot of troubles buying totally false phone.

By the way what is g19800720?
I guess I learned my lesson well. I'm returning cheap entry level phone which was sold on Amazon as a ZE551ML. At least partially you can blame all mess on Asus, which would never provided clear specs of variety of models around.
Now I'm quite positive that currently you can't buy any other ZE551ML than Taiwanese. And right now Asus has in production European (ww) model which will be on the market in France and Italy at the end of this month (on the web as well). And maybe Chinese model will be selling at the same time too.
Later, probably at the end of May after announcement in the event in New York the US model is coming to the market. And that's pretty all.
