[12:45] <singpolyma> I haven't seen this being asked on the forums yet, so I thought I'd try here: does anyone know if the hinge issues have been fixed in the TouchBookv2/SmartBook? I'm loving all the other changes, and it looks like most of the issues I've heard about have been fixed.

[14:18] <Mrkva> singpolyma: what hinge issue?
[14:20] <singpolyma> The TouchBookv1 hinges are very weak. My cousin had the screws tear out of the plastic under normal non-abusive use conditions (just opening and closing the lid a couple times a day) after only a few months. Similar problems have been reported by others on the forums.
[14:23] <Aard> my hinges still live (on both keyboards), but I'm just waiting for them to break as well...
[14:25] <Mrkva> singpolyma: well, I've had the same issue
[14:25] <Mrkva> nothing good epoxy glue can't fix
[14:26] <singpolyma> Mrkva: maybe, but that's not the point. $399 hardware shouldn't tear apart under normal use :P
[14:26] <singpolyma> And since they fixed the battery issues for v2, I was hoping maybe they fixed the hinges
[14:29] <EiNSTeiN_> the hinges broke on my HP laptop too, after about 1 year
[14:30] <Mrkva> also Acers are famous for ther hinges :)
[14:30] <EiNSTeiN_> this kind of design flaw happens...
[14:30] <EiNSTeiN_> I don't have a touchbook yet, but is there a repair option?
[14:31] <Aard> EiNSTeiN_: well, you can send it back in for repairs, though that's somewhat impractical (becaus costly) if you're not in the US
[14:32] <EiNSTeiN_> will they sell the plastic case alone? anyone asked?
[14:34] <Aard> not that I know of. though I guess they'd make it possible if you ask nicely (thogh maybe with some delay)
