I live in Norristown, PA and just wanted to let you know that the Toys R Us by King of Prussia mall has TONS of the Blue/Black XL models, all of them dated 2012 with a serial of SW12xxxxx. So these should be on 4.4 or 4.5 fw and exploitable. If things don't work out with the downgrading, you can easily find a new one that will work with Gateway. Good luck!
