Might be seeing these show up in the mail, or at least if you're not that blessed, start seeing/hearing more from the wilds!!!

Oops, didn't realize I posted a broken one, shame on me...

If this is true I'd think we would see a soft launch 2 weeks or so after this.

sir_mycroft · 05/11/2009, 10:22 AM

Does this mean I have not been selected as a reviewer? (Snif)

Kyusaku · 05/11/2009, 10:42 AM

I'm I'm starting to wonder if this Real Reviewer thing is just another bait and switch by Palm, and that all the real reviewers are actually fake or on Palm's payroll.

Oh, that would be so messed up.

Maybe they'll realize they don't need to give out phones to get "real reviewers"

nojok3 · 05/11/2009, 10:56 AM

Does anyone remember giving them an address or if it was just e-mail? I can't recall...

I'm pretty sure the only contact information they asked was phone number and email.

All they asked for was an email and phone number...no address.

I hope the "PALM!!!! Guy" gets one.
Now that would be a great unboxing video.

Guess we won't getting surprised with a package then. Fingers still crossed.

Outrigger · 05/11/2009, 02:42 PM

they asked for my social #too!

The Phone Diva · 05/11/2009, 03:30 PM

Is that true? Once they do that, I'd get suspicious.

Although it could also mean those who get chosen have to go through a background check to see if they're legit? That's the only legit reason I can see for the social.

So that's what they meant by "real" reviewers.

I think Pre waiting stress is taking its toll.

akatoast · 05/11/2009, 04:39 PM

I am still holding out hope to be selected.

You think after you drop it like a hot potato and mention it made no money and is costing you money, anyone else wants it??? Way to go HP!! And some people are fools to keep believing their hype. HP has shown they will throw webOS under the bus and people are still having faith in them??? News flash: if it's own company won't stand behind it, it's finished!
