    Default My local Best Buy now has a Toshiba R15 on dis


    My local Best Buy now has a Toshiba R15 on display in tablet mode! Their demos are better than they used to be. Unfortunately, their sales staff still is not trained in tablet use.

    I saw the BestÂ*Buy demo while setup on vacation at Traverse City, MI. What I didn't like is it had all the bloatware on it making it sluggish. But was the first proper setup I've seen at a major retailer. I actually demoed my r15 to the sales staff when I brought it in with me to get it fitted for a case.

    Yeah, in Kalamazoo MI they had a M200 a long time ago. I just saw the R15 a few weeks ago when I went. Best Buy is not the ideal place to buy tablets, duh.

    Their prices seemed high, but they had an r 15 on display that you could freely to play with.

    I remember seeing the m200 on display a long time ago, but it was in a metal boot thing and the pen was inaccessible.

    Just went to a local best buy yesterday (Irvine, CA) and they had the R15 on demo. Was hoping they might have an M4 because I'd heard some Best Buys do, but no such luck. Still, was nice to finally get to try out a tablet. Had Alias Sketchbook Pro on trial mode. Was very nice. I'm a little concerned though, as applying much pressure at all to the screen caused distortion... Is this normally the case with the R15, and is it any better with the M4?

    My r15 has screen distortion when I push in the center. It doesn't really bother me.

    Heh, just went to BestBuy looking for a kb and noticed they had a R15. The poor thing was in pathetic shape. The screen was so bent from people trying to pry it up without unlatching that it was shaped like a smile. Personally, I was amazed it had not cracked.

    Hey, just a note with buying at Best Buy, DO NOT buy the $300 warrantee from Best Buy, when you set up your computer you are prompted if you want to buy the same type of warrantee from Toshiba but it is a fraction of the cost. Plus, with the Best Buy warrantee they just send your computer to Toshiba anyway to have it fixed.
