In your world today, you're constantly on the move—and you want a laptop that can keep up with you. The thin-and-light Gateway® EC Series Notebook has your needs covered with enhanced mobility offerings. Every EC is outfitted with new-generation connectivity via either 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/b/g/n wireless. And your EC laptop is Wi-Fi Certified®, so it will work flawlessly with ancillary wireless products that are also certified.1

Easy Mobility

Take your EC out into your world and still retrieve your e-mail. Have IM and VOIP conversations with friends and colleagues. Enjoy video chats using the high-def webcam and digital microphone. Windows Messenger lets you send SMS messages, customize your conversations and share photos—and the integrated media card reader makes transferring photos from your devices a breeze. With all these avenues open, you'll stay in touch all during the day.

For those times when you're home or a place you can go wired, each EC is outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet for gigabit-per-second data transmission speeds. With your EC, it's easy to connect.



Easy Usability

It's also easy to use your EC laptop. Each of our 11.6" and 15.6" EC laptops comes with a full-size keyboard—and with a multigesture touchpad. Use a scrolling motion for quick and seamless navigation. Pinch and expand to zoom in and zoom out of pictures and documents. Rotate artwork and other objects easily. Flip to browse through media libraries, webpages and documents. On our 15.6" EC models, a dedicated numeric keypad makes computations all the faster.



For your convenience, select software comes preloaded, including Adobe® Flash®, Adobe® Reader® and Gateway's Recovery Management tools. Every EC laptop also boasts Microsoft® Works, a home productivity software suite with word processing, spreadsheet, database and calendar capabilities. So you're equipped to stay productive, wherever your day takes you.

Plus, optical drives are integrated on our EC58 models.
