It's back.... the $29.99 Gateway mini netbook from Verizon.

Usual stipulations apply: 2 year contract required and the cost is actually $129.99 with a $100 on-line discount.

This is the same mini notebook (Gateway LT2016u) Verizon offered back in November as part of their Black Friday deal. It's still shipping with Windows® XP Home Edition Operating System, features a 10.1” display, 1GB of RAM and 160GB of Hard Drive. It also has a built–in Web–cam and microphone and s also WiFi capable.

This model is starting to look a little old now, but many people still prefer good ole Windows XP. This model has a good track record and gets above average battery life.

Wow, this is a super good buy - if - you can handle the required 2-year data plan. Offer is only good from Friday November 27th to Monday November 30th.

The mini notebook has built-in 3G capability and is Wi-Fi capable as well. It has a 10.1-inch screen, a 160 GB hard drive and 1GB of RAM and weighs in less than 3 pounds.

Are wireless Mini-Cards reliable?

Posted by: Mike | Comments (1)

bluesters2000 asked:


My nephew has a Dell laptop that he connects wirelessly to the internet with. The host CP has a Verizon modem connected to it. The laptop has a 1390 802.11g Mini Card. Not all times but most times it takes approx 10-15 minutes to get connected to the internet. Is it because it is only a mini-card he has installed on the laptop. I'm not sure of the reliablity or functionality of the mini-cards.
I was think about buying one of those wireless adapters that he could plug into his USB port. Do you think he would get connected faster with this type?

Thanks

I want to purchase 3 mini laptops (preferably 12 inches or less) for my children. Since I want to buy 3 of them I'd like to find a decent price on them. Also, I don't want a monthly contract w/ Verizon or AT&T for internet service. I just want the laptops themselves. Any ideas??
Guess I should've mentioned my kids are 14, 15, & 16 years old.

I bought a 1/8" to 3/32" adapter so I can plug in my normal jack headphones(the standard size for everything). It works, but only sound comes to one ear, and the same happens when I plug it into a stereo set. When I use the mini jack headphones the stereo comes through but the sound isn't as good. How can I make it work in stereo?
