They're still building it.

They will probably still be building it next year, too.

I'm quite glad I didn't give them $300 for the "honor" of waiting two or more years to get what I paid for.]]>Apr 9th 2010 12:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/I did, but I'm gonna get myself a refund this week maybe.

I have never seen the point (for any item, not just this one) - if it's gonna come out, it's gonna come out... why do you have to be the dweeb that has it the FIRST DAY?]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/I agree. The whole concept of a pre-order is just foolish.
Why not just notify people when you have the device in stock (automated email or something) and THEN ask them if they would like to place an order -- paying for a product that is still in the pre-order stage is NOT smart, no matter what company is selling it.]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/
The company is called Enzo? Ok... Props to Engadget for the free advertisement..]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/
lol, free advertising? That's kind of a silly thing to say. The point of advertisement is to get customers to purchase things from them. I think Engadget's taken enough steps in this article to assure you that you should not do such a (foolish) thing.]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/

One should only pre-order from companies they trust and won't go bankrupt tomorrow.]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/
You shouldn't pre order for any reason if you haven't used the product!

Saves people from either getting a product that has something like Wi-Fi and heating problems (iPad) to a product that doesnt exist (ZenPad).

Geesh, wait a month and test the darn thing in a store!]]>Apr 9th 2010 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/Indeed.

It's a sad commentary of our consumer-whore society where we'll jump to buy any product sight-unseen just because it's new.... must be the first on the block with new toy to prove my worth.

congradulations, now your supergadget is never going to exist.

The reallity is that most times especially when buying online your buying without knowing exactly what your getting.

With the iPad I knew what I was getting (a big iPhone - to me this is a positive since the iPhone rocks and bigger means more functionality), and with EA buying Madden is a must for me since they are the only game in town for NFL.]]>Apr 9th 2010 1:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/
on the website they didn't say it was a preorder. They just said there MIGHT be a delay in shipping for processing time. They didn't say they never had the item or OUT OF STOCK. This is why I would say it is fraud. I thought they were shipping them out of Fresno California or something.

we thought we were buying a product! an since Engadget recommended them they are partly responsible in my opinion. Because they are have a reputation. Now I dont trust what I read on Engadget. It seems its just a bunch of freelance bloggers in there 20's just righting what they feel or think at the time. Its not journalism in the least bit. It is a blog so I should have known.

Of course I am mostly to blame for not waiting for actual reviews from users. Usually I obsess over buying electronics . I have been waiting a year now for a new laptop using my wifes crappy Compaq nc6220 (the equivalent of a netbook.]]>Apr 13th 2010 2:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/ensos-zenpad-is-vaporware-get-refunds-while-they-last/
