I flew last week in the US. Forgot to take a magazine or book to read during take off and landing. I just locked the keyboard on my PP and closed it during take off and landing, although, coming home, I didn't hear the announcement to turn off electronic devices, so I read through takeoff. My understanding is that there is nothing really going on electronically if you aren't turning a page, and I think of a keyboard lock as "off."

I left the PP in my backpack or my coat pocket during screening, no problem there. TSA can do, by their own rules, anything they wish, but unless they say to specifically put all electronic devices in a tub, I see no reason to. It doesn't look like a computer, after all.
