    Hi helpful readers

    Note: This thread is not so much a tablet query as it is a general product shipping query.

    I am located in Cape Town, South Africa and I have decided to buy the Gateway CX200 Tablet PC.

    However, I am having a real problem finding the tablet in South Africa as Gateway has no branch here and notebook resellers here don't import Gateway products. This means I'll have to buy online and have it shipped all the way here.

    Could somone please inform me about shipping procedures, costs and tax implications as well as how to go about buying this superb tablet online and actually getting it here without it breaking it?

    Warranties are also an issue...

    My Gateway CX200 Specifications:
    2.1Ghz Intel 770 M Processor
    1GB RAM
    Radeon X600 128MB Video Card
    100GB HDD
    14.1" Monitor

    For for more info on my choice please see this thread: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=30874
    where I posted my initial queries about buying this tablet.

    Thank you
    P Theron
