anyone knows a method for panning with the original drivers or something free.

I really would like to get the buttons to work so that I can program them when I want to rotate the screen. I tried the newest MenuUI driver which were 2.0.3.6. I haven’t had any other issues with my Q1. My model is a FP-Q1-F000/SEA. Thanks John

I replaced the atheros one with an intel and browsing the web is really slow. when i disable the internal one and put a netgear usb wirless card in it works great.

About the only things that didn’t work right out of the box were the buttons. The big reason I more with the drivers was to see if I could fix the “sleep lockup”. Unfortunately, still haven’t figured that one out.

Oh well… it is a beta!

I have been running it very well on a Lenovo X61. Only problem I’ve seen there: if I haven’t shut it down in a few days (just using sleep/hibernate) and I have a lot of windows open, I get some pen “jitter” toward the bottom of the screen… doesn’t do it when I’m running XP, so I don’t think it’s a hardware problem.

I’m surprised that setting up a Win7 box is still not yet a turn-key operation and that you still have to futz about with drivers and configuration protocols.

I thought the whole point of advanced tech was to get rid of this engineering overhead. Here’s hoping the release version is more noob-friendly…. at least for me.

The inking experience is outstanding with the toouch screen – the ink looks smoother and the accuracy is much better.

I used the Vista drivers available from Asus. Not sure if it is the same case with the Q1, but with the R2H evidently it matters what order you install the drivers in. Warner Crocker on GottaBeMobile did a lot of trial and error in setting up Vista on the R2H and I used his final installation order.

There is only one thing that does not work properly – when you try to wake the system out of sleep, it locks up. The fan comes on, but that’s it. Hibernate works fine, just sleep mode…so, I disabled sleep in the power settings and just use hibernate if I’m transporting it. Other than that, the little guy is a charm!

I know you and James have sort of gotten over your handwriting input fetish – but with Asian languages it’s a freakin’ blessing. Often even native speakers may misread words because they use complicated or rarely used symbols, or the symbols are used with uncommon pronounciations. Handwriting is the best way to overcome this obstacle.

I am seriously considering buying one of the new netbook convertables coming out on the market, like the CTL 2Go (~$500) (assuming I can’t make the bid price for your machine). But they only come with XP (non-tablet) – Win7 would be an after-market choice if the handwriting is good.

Thanks for whatever input (pun intended) you can offer.
