got my HTC Flyer :)

[aekhhi]

I picked my preorder up at the local Best Buy Mobile store in the mall.
They didn't have any pens in stock but they were able to get me one at the actual Best Buy location... and I got that pen for $58.14... I got a 10% discount on the pen

$403.84 (after my $110.00 reward zone certificate)
$58.14 (pen)

Total $489.70
Gift card from preorder: $50.00
Visa card 1: 80.00 (for the pen since I originally wanted to do a separate transaction)
Visa card 2: 359.70 (for the Flyer)

not a bad deal
getting ready to open it now!!

they only had three at the store I got mine at. I was surprised. I thought it was nice of them to give me the 10% off.. I wonder if thats because I bought it with the tablet? the tablet is extremely nice. a little bit heavier than I expected. still, it feels like it is really good quality. I'm trying to figure out where the microsd expansion slot is though?

It's under the top plastic piece. Push down where it meets the metal on the back , while sliding it up.

While I'm discussing plastic pieces, I'm not thrilled about the hollow sound you get upon tapping on the bottom piece. Not crazy about the matte finish of the white plastic either.

The microsd slot is under the back, white cover where the camera is.

Just tapped it as you said that! Agreed, sounds hollow. And yes, the white matte plastic is a bit cheap maybe? Not to mention will probably get filthy.

yea I finally decided to read the little book that came with it. but for the life of me, I cannot get that thing to slide up at all. its not like its stuck because it sorta moves... but it just won't come off!

edit*
now going on 20 minutes of trying to get this off & broke two nails that are short as it is. uh this is ridiculous! any advice anyone?

I was actually watching a video review of the flyer and even the guy in the demo was saying how ridiculous it is to get off. Annoying, luckily there aren't many reasons to remove it unless you swap out the SD card a lot.

oh I know! I finally got the thing off... and put my memory card in, but then it wouldn't pick up a charge.
