Well, I got my cradle yesterday but no tablet, and I was pretty panicky. But now I see that I'm not the only one. I sent an email to Woot customer service last night, hope to hear back from them soon. Seems like this could have been handled better...

I received the cradle on Tuesday, but there's still no sign of a second tracking number or the tablet itself. I have to wonder if FBA thinks the order is complete.

Can't wait to open this thing up...

From Woot Warehouse: These orders will ship in one package and are shipped via SmartPost. That's where FedEx delivers the package to your post office who then delivers it to you. Allow 3-5 days for shipping once the item leaves our warehouse.

From FBA*: These are shipped as two separate packages with two different tracking numbers via UPS or USPS (again depending on where you're located). If you have only one tracking number, contact service@woot.com for help with the 2nd tracking number.

To see which way yours is shipping, keep an eye on the order details in "Stuff You Bought". When the item is shipped, the tracking numbers will be posted there and they will direct you to the correct site for tracking.

*FBA = Fulfillment by Amazon. When using FBA, we instruct our vendor to deliver the product to one or more fulfillment centers from which the product will then be shipped. Please note that we are not part of the Prime or Super Saver Shipping program. Do not contact Amazon about shipping. They won't know anything.

I also sent an email to service@woot.com. This is the reply:
"This product will ship in 2 separate packages. When we have the 2nd tracking number, we will pass it along to you. Sorry for the confusion."

No sign of the second tracking number yet.

Well, it would be nice to see an official statement of that sort from Woot somewhere on these pages.

I had one FedEx SmartPost tracking number for a 4.3 lb pkg. It shipped Aug 6 and arrived Aug 8 miraculously. Both cradle and tablet together.

So far I really like it. I had seen online that after updating to ICS, some users had problems with the Play Store/Market. Same thing happened to me. However if you go to the tablet settings > Apps and uninstall the Play Store updates, it will re-update on next use and work fine!

Just got a reply from Woot. 2nd shipment is now on the UPS truck for delivery today. Can't wait to get home from work!

Wow, good deal if it's true. What about shipping?

here is what's to come for the new sony tablet... i think us tablet S owners are missing out, but can't beat the price we paid here.

http://www.technobuffalo.com/companies/sony/sony-xperia-quad-core-tablet-photos/

Ok.. our tablet arrived today.. but still no tracking number for it.. so, if you don't have a tracking number for your tablet (and the cradle already arrived) sit tight, I guess..

I took a gamble and ordered it and the dock. I'll post again with the outcome of this order.

OK, I got mine today. A few problems and one question.

-Biggest problem. When I looked at the storage it only has 4GB of internal storage.
-Google play store crashes every 5 seconds

Question where is the button to get the sub menus, it has 4 lines on my phone.

The 4GB you see is internal storage for the system, scroll down a bit and you will see the 24.8GB for apps, music, videos storage. As for the google play apps go to setting> apps > force stop > remove updates. Hit the app again and it should work.

Nice that you helped solve their problem.

Shipment information sent to U.S. Postal Service

On Thursday, I let my Letter Carrier know that I'm expecting a couple of packages on or before Monday.

If I'm really lucky, I'll have my case and screen protector the same day the tablet/cradle is delivered. I'm really happy right about now because the tablet and cradle will arrive in the same package.

I had received my cradle on Tuesday, but no tablet as of last night so I emailed Woot, this was their reply:

Hello,

Sorry for the delay.

It seems our shipping partner ran out of inventory.

Luckily we have some at our own facility. I have put in for it to be shipped out to you ASAP.

You should receive tracking information shortly.

thomasfun2005 wrote:[Ok....does the cradle and tablet get shipped seperately? I knew this deal was too good to be true! a $260 cradle????

Did you ever get your tablet ?
Shoud have mine tomorrow

Overall, I like the tab, still getting used to it, configuring it, etc. I also had a problem with Google Play Store, but will try the above suggestion.

Hulu seems to be deliberately blocked (those b*stards!!). Anybody know a way around this?

Oops, that worries me... I received the cradle on Tuesday too and am still waiting on the Tab without any tracking number. Hopefully it shows up soon.

I need help!! I want to read books from my local lib.I've install the overdrive media console app.but it has no register page it suppose to have.I uninstalled it then install it again and again.still the same.could someone help?

Just got mine this morning, typing on it right now!

I waited until the stupid explanation was finished (I fast forwarded it. The I closed the app, and reopened it using the icon it had put on the "desktop". After it re-opened, I hit the 3 vertical dots on the bottom and the sub menu opened where I can find books, which took me to the find library page, where I could finally sign in with my library.
II hope this helps.

Could you please let me know which case and screen protector you ordered?

http://www.skindigitalstore.com/purple-genuine-leather-case-cover-for-sony-s1-tablet-s-9-4/

I used a code (eb10x) that gave me 10% off. That code allowed me to grab that screen protector free of charge. The screen protector is $2.00 when purchased with the case.

If the case turns out to be pleather instead of leather, I won't be too happy about it.

The tablet comes with a screen protector already installed, but it smudges pretty easily.

Not to the point of annoyance or inability to utilize the tablet properly.

Just an observation.

Wow! This thing is very cool! I got both the tablet and the cradle today. Updated fine and is charging up nicely. Vey smooth to use and the screen is awesome. Still figuring out how to customize and what apps I want. I`ve already synced to my desktop without any problems. Of course wifi connected quickly as well.
Great woot!

Thanks. If I don't use the screen protector, I may just spray a little Antec Advance Cleaning Solution on it. It's antic static and fingerprint resistant.

Have played with it for a couple of days now. I was quite happy with it at the very beginning. Easy to upgrade to 4.0. But, wifi drops so often that really annoys me. Once the wifi was dropped, even though I was next to the router, it still said no signal! My iPad, iTouch never had such problem. Very frustrated! Am I getting a defective unit? Anyone experienced the same problem?

Been plaing with it a couple of hours now, no wifi issues. Tried home and away too...
