Sadly, it seems to require a hard surface - no typing on your lap sitting on the beach.

What happens if one types away while not resting the device on a hard surface? Does it miss keys? Is it uncomfortable to hold it on ones lap ?

It's as floppy as you'd expect. They do make another device with a more laptop form factor - but as I understand it, it doesn't have as good English support. I could be wrong.

It's a bit floppy, but certainly doable. If you have a hard surface like a sketchpad, it's fine.

I don't have one, just searched the forums online and found this.
