Product Description

Since its foundation, Gateway has been a consistent innovator in the PC industry, starting with a business model that provides maximum value to its customers. Gateway was the first PC manufacturer to bring to market such customer-focused concepts as integrated Internet services, a broad selection of peripherals and software, a personalized Internet portal and bundled Internet access with the purchase of most Gateway PCs.

Amazon.com Product Description

Fifty inches can be bigger than you think: you'd need a 55-inch 4:3 aspect-ratio set to give you widescreen images as big as those rendered by Gateway's 50-inch, 16:9 high-definition plasma television. The set boasts a native pixel resolution of 1,366 x 768, with exemplary 600:1 contrast, high 600 cd/m2 brightness, and plenty of audio/video inputs and outputs for your home-entertainment needs. There's even an RGB PC input so you can view your computer images in larger-than-life lushness.

A plasma screen consists of two thin sheets of glass containing tiny, gas-filled cells. Electronic current stimulates the cells to produce light and color, creating a bright, steady, vivid pictures. You also get extremely wide viewing angles (160 degrees with this set), and easy placement due to the TV's slim profile--this Gateway set is a mere 3.9 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting (a table stand is supplied, and the set is compatible with most mounting hardware). Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed near lighting or sound systems.

Built-in digital scaling engine accepts various computer and HDTV signals, then digitally maps the signals to fit within the screen's 1,366 x 768 pixels. Compatible signals include computer display resolutions up to 1,280 x 1,024 and all HDTV signals, including 720p and 1080i.

Gateway even offers advanced digital image processing, which converts all interlaced (composite-video, S-video) signals to progressive-scanned images for bright, flicker-free viewing. A built-in digital visual interface (DVI) jack eliminates the need for analog-to-digital conversion between your DTV set-top box or computer.

PIP (picture-in-picture) gives you the option of watching TV and one non-PC, non-HD input source simultaneously. You can view with one image inset, or with two images side by side (picture-by-picture)--and you can swap images at the touch of a button. A choice of digital zoom modes lets you fill the screen to eliminate letterbox bars on 4:3 (or other) aspect-ratio content, and picture freeze ensures you don't miss any details.

Stereo speakers with five watts per channel offer strong, clear sound. Bass, treble, BBE Sound maximizer, and audio balance controls let you tailor the set's sound output, while, for more spacious-sounding programs, SRS sound processing simulates surround sound through any two speakers. A stereo minijack (.125-inch) output facilitates hookup with optional external computer speakers, and a monaural RCA output lets you use an optional subwoofer to enhance the low-frequency response of your listening system. There's a stereo (left/right) RCA output with internally selectable fixed or variable level for routing the TV's sound to an integrated amplifier or surround receiver.

With its versatile power supply (AC 100 to 240 volts, 50 or 60 Hz, 4.5 amps), the 50-inch set is equally at home in many countries.

TV, table stand, remote control, remote batteries, AC power cord, a user's manual, a remote control manual, and warranty/registration information.

2 out of 5 stars Buy the extended warranty!!!!.......2005-07-11

Initially the tv was ok. The picture and resolution were decent. The TV comes with a one year warranty. I'm 18 months in and the panel has apparently blown leaving me with a permanent black bar through the middle of the screen. What's worse is Gateway is aware of this problem yet offers no solution and no support. The tv has been rendered worthless and I'm now shopping for a new (non-Gateway) model.

4 out of 5 stars Definitely a good tv but expensive.......2004-10-04

I got this tv last week and i am pretty happy about it. It has nice cool features but it's a bit expensive as this technology is still evolving. I bought this a little cheap by getting a 5% cashback through www.perfectrebates.com. These people gave me 5% as a cashback. So it turned out to be a good deal for me.

        5 out of 5 stars Good Black Inkject Cartridgre.......2005-11-05

        This ink is affordable and lasts much better than other Ink I have been using. The only problem is this ink becoming scarce. You can only get it from a few places such as Amazon.com

        4 out of 5 stars the performance is good unless you want a laser one.......2001-07-17

        this product is great to go with its BJC-250 printer, i've using my printer for almost 4 years. Most of the time to print homework, it perform quite well. I think it's really good if not compare with a laser printer, since all your words on your documents will become totally "dark" if it gets wet!

        5 out of 5 stars Best There Is!.......2000-09-24

        I tried a generic brand for my BJC1000 and had a very bad experience all because I was trying to $Save--but guess what as the old saying goes "you get just what you pay for". I will stick with Canon and be assured of the quality.

        4 out of 5 stars Good value for a reliable product.......2000-06-17

        This is probably my 8th cartridge, & I like the quality of its printouts. The ink is very dark & prints well on plain white paper or textured resume stock. I've paid anything from $22 to $28 for this product at regular bookstores, so this is a good price.

        4 out of 5 stars Good black cartridge.......2000-05-20

        This cartridge is a bit expensive, but cheaper than most black cartridges produced by other printer companies. The black quality is good, and it lasts for a fair number of pages.

          It arrived on Wed. and quit working on Sat. Have sent back. Will not replace with another of this same one

          5 out of 5 stars Bang for your buck.......2001-03-29

          If you are looking for a cheap tape player, I highly recommend this. The only negatives (which are hard to tell from the picture) are that the player has no rewind button and no audio reverse (but does stop at the end of a tape).

          This is great bang for your buck! Recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap, high-quality walkman.

                Product Description

                Transfer data between a Bluetooth-enabled computer or PDA and computers connected to the LAN via the AP, or simply gain Internet access through the connected LAN. Send a print job to USB printers via Bluetooth by connecting your USB printer to your AP. The built-in print server also allows you to send print jobs from computers connected to the LAN to USB printers connected to the AP. The AP includes a Class 1 Bluetooth radio-the most powerful radio available. It operates at up to 723 Kbps within a 100-meter range and supports up to seven users simultaneously. The easy-to-use web browser interface makes managing your AP simpler than ever. By using DHCP, your AP obtains an IP address automatically when connected to the network. Connections to all Bluetooth wireless devices are secure through 128-bit encryption, and user authentication.

                2 out of 5 stars Problems but authentication workarounds.......2006-04-17

                This unit does do the job but its set-up took a day of experimenting with Windows services before LAN and printer access was established. However, the real problem is when you set an authentication password on the web interface - once you reboot your access to Web Manager is gone forever - no hardware reboot! I thought I was going mad as my trusted administrator password and 100 variations failed. Finally I discovered through these reviews that the password set is not always properly recorded. However, there is a back route using telnet - put in your password at the ADMIN password prompt and you are given access the router internals via a unix command line interface. You need the following two commands to disable your password for Web Manager:

                Belkin-F8T030>setpb authreq off
                Belkin-F8T030>reboot

                You will be disconnected as the reboot actualises but then you'll find you again have access to the Web Manager on http://1.2.3.4.

                I only wish Belkin support could publish this on their support site as a FAQ but then then is more chance that Narnia is reality!

                3 out of 5 stars It works for me.......2005-08-26

                I actually liked this unit. I have a three story 2200 square foot home and I can access the internet/printer from anywhere in my house. I have to agree with the rest of the reviews dealing with the tech support (hope you do not need them). Luckily, the setup was a snap and my printer was easy to get working. If you are using an all in wonder printer (scan, print, fax) I would not suggest hooking it up to this print server. It works well with just a junk generic inkjet though. I currently interface with it using a palm tungsten t5, but have heard that other PDA's do not play as well.

                1 out of 5 stars Horrible Range! Don't buy! You'll be sorry! I was!.......2004-12-29

                The Belkin F8T030 has terrible range. It only worked at full speed when I held my Palm Zire 72 within 8 inches of the unit! It barely moved data at 5 feet and dropped out completely over 10 feet away.

                I Returned it and bought an Anycom AP-2002 bluetooth access point. Both are supposed to be Class 1 radios but the Anycom is way better! It has 2 to 3 times the range of the Belkin. If you screw up the settings you can do a full factory reset with out having to establish a connection first. With the Belkin, you have to be able to connect to it to reset it.

                Even though the Anycom is better, Bluetooth still has quite a limited range. The Anycom is Class 1, but the Palm is not, and it is the limiting factor. When they say 300 feet, that is only if both ends are a Class 1 radio. When they say 30 feet for a Palm device, you can still connect at 30 feet, but the throughput is very very slow.

                Practical distances with the Anycom seem to be around 10 feet and that is still slower than when you are right next to the access point.

                I read some of the other negative reviews on the Belkin and thought it cant be that bad, but it was! Stay away, really!

                1 out of 5 stars This product is not ready for public sale.......2004-12-16

                The tech support was prompt and knowledgeable. The unit has good range which seems to be limitied more by the class of the PDA that is trying to acess it.

                HOWEVER this product has a VERY serious design deficiency that makes it UNSUITABLE FOR USE at any price!!!! Belkin tech support has confirmed that there is no way to reset the unit to the original factory settings if you can not acess it via the built in web manager. Belkin tech support also confirmed that there is also a flaw in the unit that will cause some user passwords to not be accepted. Once this happens, this will essentially require returning the unit for complete replacement. I know of no other networking product that has such a serious design flaw (all other networking devices I am aware of have at least a reset button somewhere or a "power on" sequence to handle these inevitable situations). It also makes the unit unusable for any scenario where if you make a change to the settings, you can not afford to be without it for the time to swap it out.

                An obvious problem for you, me and Amazon here!

                1 out of 5 stars one tiny notch above junk.......2004-08-04

                The F8T030 is one tiny notch above junk. I got it working as a wireless laptop-to-printer cable, but no thanks to the instructions, as it doesn't work at all if they are followed. The network access point function and the web manager won't activate without a pairing PIN, the instructions say nothing about pairing, no reasonable guess works, and there is no hardware reset or bypass. Phone service doesn't connect to a person; it asks you to leave a voice message and promises to get back within 48 hours; it has been 5 days. Buy ANYTHING else!
