Guest AndyO Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 Just wondering what was typical?!? Mine moves about 2mm when closed and can lift a little which I found rather disconcerting at first when it 'gives' as you use the stylus but am now getting used to it. Read a couple of reviews that lead me to believe some of them are rock solid though so I don't know if mine is just a bit loose?! Makes me think the design should include a lock/latch like a laptop lid to 'release' the slider and hold it more securely in place when closed....maybe that'll make it into the Tytn III which will also be 12mm thick ;) Great little bit of kit though, that hinge is genius!!!

Mine is a tiny bit loose - but so is the slider on my S710... I agree that a latch or lock would have made the design absolutely perfect. I'm not sure why they chose not to add one.
Guest fusi Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 when closed i can lift the right side of the display (in portrait) about 2mm - i think this is just a bit of loose space in the hinge - nothing to worry about

Mine moves not at all unless pushed to slide and I can just get my thumb nail into the gap at the right hand edge. Don't know if this helps. Just another data point.
Guest Webreaper Posted October 3, 2007 Report Posted October 3, 2007 If I push it apart I can get about 1mm gap.
Guest kapot Posted October 3, 2007 Report Posted October 3, 2007 Yes, 1 mm, but thats fine as long as the spring is still tight.
