Neat little thing. Too bad it can't play WoW (probably) but still very nice.

So the screen is a touchscreen? And it can be turned around to lay flat on the keyboard, but still facing towards you ( like closing the notebook but with the screen turned up ) ? Or did I missunderstand that because I'd like it to be that way?^^
