I'm not sure what you mean by "lay flat," but the hybrid tablets I've seen with screens that can re-orient to cover the keys have connectors that require some tricky engineering. That might not work so well in a "modded" solution. I agree, though, it's the design I would prefer.

I don't know why Apple hasn't released their own tablet. I would think it would be a hit with their graphics and design oriented customer base, and certainly the "for the rest of us" users would find a pen easier to deal with than a mouse. But their hardware is so expensive already, I can see that it could price them right out of the market. As I said above, my next system will probably be running linux, rather than OSX.
