Guest secondton Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 Well it's Friday and it did arrive! Updated successfully with the today's new ROM - thanks Paul. Couldn't get Clockwork installed though. Looking forward to a bit of a play later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went into today to the pcworld in Didcot and they didn't have any, couldn't find any in any local stores and said that they were showing as 0 at local hub so I wouldn't hold your breath (although I hope I'm wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work in one of the stores and have just received my batch and most stores in the north east (my region) are showing stock. Finally today is the instore launch day and can be 100% sure now they're rolling out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dennis Elbow Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Off on holiday in two weeks :D hopefully Dixons / Currys (air-side) will have them in stock and better still, a little cheaper :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest downthepub Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 http://www.myadventvega.co.uk/storeswithstock.asp Sadly no Airport stores :huh: Not quite true, after turning up a blank at the DSG retail stores in Aberdeen over the weekend, whilst en-route to Canada I checked in the Dixons Travel in Aberdeen airport and they had a fresh delivery of about 5-7 sitting on the floor waiting to be put out on the shelf... Staff were amused that they were selling so quickly. :) Now have one in my sweaty paw and at the very reasonable price of £207 (think that's with the VAT off).

Guest expat2000 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Thats good news... I'll give Manchester a call in the morning Even if they say they have none in stock always worth asking in the shop when you travel as they seem to have no warning when they will be arriving, they only seem to know when they actually get ther in the store. Got mine from Stansted on the 10th January, called the day before and none in stock but just went in and asked on the off chance and one(!) had just arrived that morning. I travel each week so will keep an eye out to see if they have any more in. Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dennis Elbow Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Update : Dixons - Manchester Airport have them in stock :huh: called this afternoon (14:00) T1 had 1 / T2 had 3 £207.50 Just hope they have one when I go to Tenerife :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fromWinland Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 How to order one in europe, other than uk :3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Teo` Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 How to order one in europe, other than uk :3? The Advent Vega is also sold in Spain. Otherwise, you can get the Point of View Mobii TEGRA, which is the same device, pretty much anywhere in Europe. I just ordered mine in Italy.

Does it run same roms ? Same hardware? Advents design looks better though :/ Edited February 24, 2011 by fromWinland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advents design looks better though :/ It is by all means the same device from the same Chinese manufacturer, except for the logo on the back. The preloaded ROM is slightly different but the hardware is identical, and supports the same custom ROMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cmit Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) I got a great deal today from Currys Megastore in the Thurrock Shopping Park(Lakeside). They had the new(Flash installed) Vega for £249 and when I asked if they did a combo deal as on the website with the screen protector and case the sales assistant went to check. He came back and told me that the price for all three was £249. I couldn't believe it. :huh: Edited February 24, 2011 by cmit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame it took me 3 attempts to get a fully working Vega though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest smith2001 Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Just incase anyone was planning to purchase one from PC World i bought online the 245£ one were you install flash later. A man called me and said that wasn't available and so i got the pre installed £5 more expensive one for cheaper.

Guest Taxi_Driver Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 I bought one in Vienna for 319 EUR. It's actually POV Mobii Tegra but everyone knows it's bacially the same :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vansphone Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I was just about to buy an Archos 101 for £270 when I stumbled on to this tablet. It sound like I can buy a Vega for around £250 and get more ram and a better CPU. I did a quick check and it seems to meet the minimum hardware requirement for Android 3.0 My local Currys have one in stock (according to their website) so I might have a look at one tomorrow.
