Horsham, Pa. –
said its SBG6580 Surfboard eXtreme
wireless cable modem gateway product is now available through Best Buy and
BestBuy.com at a $150 suggested retail.
This gateway device
follows the Motorola SB6120 Surfboard eXtreme cable modem, introduced last
year.
The SBG6580 is
said to be eco-friendly, easy to use and fast, in addition to providing access
