Jim -
Thanks for the tip about the USB problem. I have a Motion 1400 and like it a
lot. However the USB thing sounds bad. I have not had the need to plug in
any USB device into the tablet yet.
I do have a complaint about all of the plug-ins. They are not very well
situated for using the tablet in your lap. My power plug sits in the lower
right corner and it is easy to bang it around. I actually had it come loose
a few times because of the 90 degree angle of the plug. I can use the
rotation buttom to get it elsewhere, however. This may also be the solution
to the USB problem. Rotating it 180 degrees should allow for the USB devices
to plug in to "the top" of the tablet.
Cheers,
John

We just ordered a new one and almost made that mistake.
Also be careful with the plug-ins to the USB ports. Both of our ports went bad due to the constant flexing of the cables in our lap. The USB's are mounted on the mother board which is a layered board and the solder joints cannot be repaired. As soon as you get the Motion make sure you get a USB hub and mount on the back of the Motion. Don't plug anything that is going to constantly move into the ports on the computer.
