Ive just saved enough money for the WiFi version and wnet to the Sony site to buy it and now theres no mention of it. You can only buy tye Lte version for £579. Is it sold out or have they scrapped it? Also the release date has been pushed back a week for the Lte version.
WiFi version sold out in the UK?

strange
Hey there,
I actually ordered thevwifi version myself back in april.
It was expected to ship on the 27th of May. Then I received an email on the 26th saying that due to "unfortunate" delay they are expected to ship on the 5th of June.
I called sony and they told me that it is probably a problem of availability..... I was pissed off on the fact that I ordered it about 2 months before the shipment period.
Yet I am starting to think that they are actually trying to push the LTE version more on the pre sales hence why they removed it from the pre orders page ans replaced it with the LTE version.
But I still cannot believe why would every tablet delivery should be delayed instead of just starting to ship those which are already available. It can only lead me to assume there is some fault with them or they want to install further stuff and reship them to the UK.
Either way it is very strange from sony... Any other opinions on the matter or anyone who knows more??

Not sure whats going on as its not available to buy at all on the sony uk website now. Could be to do with Microsoft and preinstalled office apps which was in the news lately. Fed up with it so i bought a 128gb surface 3 with keyboard for the same price as the lte z4 tablet. Im a Sony fan and absolutely everything electronic i own is by them (PC/z3 tablet/smartwatch 3/z3 phone/ps4/Headset etc but ive had enough now, year after year with promised release dates then it gets knocked back and support getting worse. Switching to MS now.
Actually I called them again yesterday and they confirmed to me that the wifi version is sold out that is why it has been temporarily removed from the website.
Thanks, they could have made people aware on the website, after all being sold out is something to brag about!
