Great ... I can't register for a developer account because I'm from Slovenia. Guess it's time to move to Somalia so I'll be able to register :\


Don't be too disappointed, but the page only mentions developers from North America and Europe can get a coupon.

That means Somalia would be out, too.

Now why can't Australian developers have coupons, too?

US, UK, Canada, but not Australia?


Still ... Slovenia is in Europe :)


Only until the next referendum ;)


Again replying here (what's up with that?!) ...

oh ok then :) no offence was taken I just wanted to point out that Europe is not the same as European Union :)

God, why do ya'll care? These tablets aren't even worth the $149. Buy a cheap, shitty Android tablet for $100 and you'll be just as frustrated, but have a device that's mildly useful.


Have you ever even tried the Touchpad? The hardware alone is worth at least that much. WebOS is a great operating system. If you don't like it, put CM7 on it.

Don't be so ignorant. I bought one for my parents at 149.99 and they love it. I probably would have bought one for myself as well had I felt the need for a tablet.


Why buy this tablet for $150? Perhaps because it is the best hardware you can get in a tablet for that price, WebOS is actually pretty nice, and you can install something else on it if you don't like it (currently Android or GNU/Linux).



I'm replying here because I can't reply to your last comment ...

I have no idea what you are on about, care to explain?


It was just a light-hearted reference to how disfunctional European political leadership in general is right now.

It wasn't intended as a slight against Slovenia in any way (and if you took it that way, please accept my apologies).


Europe != EU


You're right. And Slovenia has been in the EU since 2004.


fyi Slovenia IS in Europe
