Gateway recently released E-155C, its latest 12-inch widescreen tablet PC. Powered by the new Intel Core 2 Duo U7500 (1.06GHz) ULV (Ultra Low Voltage) processor, this convertible notebook supports both digital pen and touch screen input provided by Watcom. Technically speaking, this machine is based on Intel 945GM chipset and features an Intel GMA (Graphics Media Accelerator) 950 graphics engine, up to 4GB of DDR2 RAM, up to 120GB of 5,400rpm SATA hard drive, and either a DVD/CD-RW or DVD burner. It also supports a wide-range of connectivity options, including 802.11a/b/g WiFI, Gigabit Ethernet LAN, Bluetooth, and 56K modem.

Moreover, E-155C Tablet PC is equipped with a fingerprint reader, 2 x USB ports, VGA port, PC Card slot, Firewire, a 6-in-1 media card reader, and a port replicator connector. There’s also a Mobility Center button that gives users one-touch access to mobility settings, but only if it used with Windows Vista OS (note that the pre-loaded operating system is Windows XP Tablet PC Edition). The display itself offers a resolution of 1280 x 800 and an anti-reflection polarizer for keeping the screen readable even under the direct sun light.

Weighs between 4.5lbs to 5.07lbs (depend on battery capacity and optical drive presence), Gateway E-155C Tablet PC is currently retailed for $1,849 (base configuration).
