Nice to read that someone else is using the Thinkpad Tablet 2 bluetooth keyboard, I think it's the best topping experience you can get in the 10 inch form factor. Would have been even nicer to get a proper Trackpoint, but it's handleable as is.

Haven't actually used the Onyx for typing outside that much yet though, partly due to two little issues.
1) I've been getting a weird effect recently where on hitting enter on the keyboard (to get a new line), the Note also registers that as a mouse click wherever the cursor happens to be. As a result, the virtual keyboard pops up, and the cursor is now moved too wherever the mouse click was registered, so I continue writing elsewhere. In not sure, but I had the feeling that this didn't happen previously, although I hadn't changed any settings. Wondering if the latest firmware introduced the issue?
2) This is just an issue of comfort, I like being able to write with the keyboard and device on my lap (especially useful when sitting on a sofa or a deck chair for example). This is where a normal laptop provides a more secure experience. it's doable with the Thinkpad keyboard thanks to the inbuilt stand, but it is still a potentially shaky construction, and you cannot lean it too far in any direction. Had anyone found a clever solution for a secure but removable attachment? (thought about magnets, elastic string, something along those lines)
