Well what can I say, I needed that little bit of extra storage that as a family we could all use. After searching around I narrowed it down to three suppliers, not the cheapest, but all well...
I purchased this Nook Color specifically because I was taking a very long trip to China and wanted to be able to read without carrying a ton of books. I also liked that it had email capability...
This is an awesome mouse with an excellent grip for a mid sized to large size hand. Right-handed, comfortable, trendy, upscale, red, responsive, functional, task oriented.
Overall A+++
I purchased the P173FX-XL from Tiger Dircet with Extended warranty. 33 days after using it, I shut it down and would not boot up the next morning. "interactive logon failed to initialize" pop up anad endless loop occured. No way to recover with recovery partition and Gateway DOES not have recovery media for this unit. I had to send the unit back to Gateway (at my cost) to have it repaired. I will not buy another Gateway because of this. I will stick to Toshiba
BTW tiger's extended warranty does not cover this type of problem either.
I have only owned mine for a little over a month. The only trouble i've faced so far is the mic/camera/audio not working properly. Tis a shame when playing games and i'm not a lip reader so I havn't bothered to watch a movie on here yet.
