Gateway Tablet PC Makes an Appearance at BestBuy

- Rob Bushway

Gateway Tablet PC

Gateway and BestBuy must be listening to our Podcasts ( not really, but indulge us a little, ok ? ).

GBM reader J. Sundy was perusing his local BestBuy when he happened upon the Gateway C-5815 12" Tablet PC for $1399. He had to do a double-take because spotting a Tablet PC in a retail store is about as rare as, well, spotting a Tablet PC in a retail store.

Head over to BestBuy for more info and check out our InkShow on the Gateway 12" Tablet PC.

I checked the Best Buy stores in the cities near where I live or frequently travel.

Availability exists in some markets, but is spotty, and there are none in the stores near home. Maybe this is just a matter of working through the delivery system (hope-hope).

About three weeks ago I saw it at the bestbuy near me, I also did a double take. Then I proceeded to play with it for over an hour free of the shackle that keeps the laptops from disapering.

Best Buy's website is now showing this model as sold out, both for orders and for store pickup.

Too bad! I thought they were on the right track with this.
