Played with an Gateway M280 Tablet PC today
I had the opportunity to play with a Gateway M280 Tablet PC today. Its’ not light for sure (and not meant to be), but that wide screen for notetaking purposes is so very nice. Very smooth notetaking surface, which is flush with the casing. When using it in portrait mode, the long screen provides a very long piece of paper.
The unit I played with had some definite pen issues, which should be resolved soon. This unit also featured an extended battery which provided a very nice gripping handle.
When you get this Tablet PC, be sure to create the recovery disks right away – you can only create the recovery disks one time. You can burn the recovery disk using the built in dvd burner.
