My TO BT keyboard doesn't lay flat:(
I just got it today and I'm noticing that it doesn't lay completely flat on a flat surface. I can type with it on my lap just fine, which is cool because I couldn't do that with my old stowaway, but when the keyboard is on a table it rocks up and down as I type - annoying! Also, when I detach the PDA stand, the two grippy feet don't both touch the table, so it tends to slide around as I type. Anybody else have this trouble? I'll just exchange mine for another if they don't all have the same problem.

I have the Dell BT, which is identical to the TO. It is flatter than a pancake on a table top. I wonder if the lock mechanism isn't engaging in yours? Do you have to slide the lock button to fold up the keyboard? You might want to contact the company about it.

The front end-on view of my TOT BT KB looks like this:

It does a tip a bit if I press two keys at once on the same overhang...

I can deal with the overhang, but mine is off-kilter in the center section that is supposed to stabilize the unit. I find that if I twist the entire keyboard slightly, it lays pretty close to flat, but as you can imagine this doesn't feel like it's good for the keyboard.

Mine lays flat as well except for the overhang. Make sure the battery cover is pushed in all the way and there are no screws coming loose. Also,check your table and make sure you have a perfectly flat surface. If none of those are the problem, take your thumb out from underneath it.

Just joking.
