Accessories are always expensive but the price of these ones are now insane! Is anyone doing cheap accessories?

I'm not quite sure what to believe as I can't find any store discounting them.

Have you got a photo of your receipt showing the prices of what you bought? You can delete out personal details.

I got the case for $50 (down from $80 I think) and the guy offered me the charging cradle for $40, I didn't take that offer up though, maybe I should have. Looked like quite a nice piece of equipment.

Depends how much you want one.

Similar prices on eBay too.

Or wait for the local retail shop staff and others to start putting them on Trademe.

Or maybe wait a bit longer for some people to realise that they just bought it because it was there, it doesn't do what they wanted and they can't be bothered with getting the various Android and Lunix projects to run on the Touchpad and now they want something else.

Perhaps a few might still have a source at discounted prices, but demand for discounted Touchpads outstrips supply at the moment, so those people aren't telling.
