Works quite well and my forearm makes for a good holder.

Will that ever get resolved or is it a hardware issue? Do other tablets have that same constraint?

I am right handed and would like to hold the tablet and battery in my left hand while I write, etc. with my right hand.

Thanks

I don’t really see a reason to try and just hold it with one hand for any extended period. It would get tiresome holding anything that weights 3 pounds or more in one hand.

Chippy at UMPC portal says that anything over about 2 pounds gets tiresome to hold in one hand. What’s your experience?

It was preinstalled by Lenovo so I suspect it is the same build that will ship when Win 7 is released.

LOL

And could you show us a picture of what Zinio looks like on that longer screen? My Lenovo X60 tablet seems the perfect size, so I’m wondering about the top and bottom margins and is there letterboxing going on or what with the X200 screen…..
