At 9.30am today UK employees had a last-ever chance to register for one of 6,000 TouchPads which had been built from leftovers since the sell-out.
Of course the Registration site actually started working at 9:15 and was crashing 2 mins later as practically every one of us scrambled for our chance to get our hands on one.
At least this time the HP Staff Sale was:
1. Restricted to 1 per staff
2. Only to actual HP staff not just anyone who'd got hold of a link
We will know within a week if we are allowed to buy one - we can't even reserve 16 or 32 you get what you are given (almost all of them are 32gb). No 64gbs, all of those went to American Staff.
