ARCHOS 101 Internet Tablet - 16GB, £161.99, PC World and Curry's
Having missed out on the HMV deal for the 8gb tablets, I've been on a bit of a mission. I've had no luck at either Carphone Warehouse or Tesco who have been selling them for £150. Both said that they are out of stock and unable to say whether they will be getting more in.
I chanced across this at PC World. Listed at £179.99 for the 16gb which isn't a bad price anyway, but also with 10% off at the moment if ordered online (no store collection for this price).
This is my first deal, so I've probably made all sorts of mistakes...sorry!

Jump to unread Post a CommentBut yes, I'm not sure why people would vote cold. I was fully intending on holding out for the 8Gb, but for £161.99 for the 16Gb, I couldn't resist.
It's a shame that people don't understand the site and vote as to whether they're a fan of a certain product rather than the deal itself.
you can buy a 16gb micro sd card for £9.69 so that would give you 8 more gig and still be a couple of pound cheaper than this deal, my eyes are wide open, i know a good deal when i see one and this isnt one of them

...or you could pay 1 pound more to have the 8gb onboard rather than a memory card, leaving the card slot empty for you to expand the memory even further. Absolutely worth just over a quid.

i got mine for £149.00 from tesco and it had 16gb on board and then i bought a 16gb micro sd card from play for £8.99 so i get the best of both worlds
After the card details have been entered? I am geting as far as this and it is still showing £179.99 - Is there a code I need to be entering?
