1. Is the touch pad good quality? does it work well inside window 8.1? right click etc? 2. anyone know any good cases that will hold both of these?

hi. as per my experience: 1.the touch pad has a very good quality but its a bit to sensitive compared to other touch pad. but you'll get used to it in time. it works well with windows 8.1, but upgrading your ASUS VivoTab Smart to 8.1 is not advisable as of the moment due to some problems. Overall perfomance of the touch keyboard is very good especially the construction and the materials used. 2. i cannot advise you or recommend any other touch keyboard for your tablet because i havent used any aside from ASUS Keyboard Touchpad. but you can try any touch keyboard that suites your preference.

It comes with windows 8 which isn't as bad as some people say. There is a desktop that works very much like windows 7 and the ability to put apps on the windows 8 is really neat. It even has a Kindle download so you can read on line, with some books for free and some really reasonably priced. I bought Windows 8 for Dummies (hard copy) to walk me through the first couple of days. Even though 8 is made for touch screen, I bought a regular monitor and you just have to use the mouse. No problem!

I love the trackpad on the MBA. It is almost like touch screen. That being said I also own and love my iPad. Glad I own both.

I just installed it yesterday, and it seems to be working great so far...I think my computer is even a little faster now. All the touch stuff seems to work...but you have to install a windows update before you can use the touchscreen. One thing to know is that all the Touchsmart applications get removed during the upgrade, which I didn't care about, but you or others might.

This is the one i useQQ-Tech Mini Bluetooth Keyboard W Touchpad for Android OS WindowsI enjoy this one because it has the keyboard and touch pad all in one in a small manageable package. Its bluetooth so you dont need to use the usb slot on the device and its free to use for anything else such as a hard drive. also it doesnt operate on batteries so that was another plus for me. When i ordered it though i did have a problem with some of the keys but that was all sorted out.

I am not a huge fan of the touch pad. It is very unresponsive at times. Really bugs me. Other than that, it is an excellent laptop.

it Works Fine But It Feels Rough. I Don't Like The Roughness On My Fingers. And With Windows 8, Using A Touchpad Instead Of Mouse Is Problematic. Like Everything Else On Windows 8.

No, the button's make a clicking noise and swipe pad in the middle makes noise sometimes. The clicking isn't to bad but the swipe is really loud sometimes. It is hard to explain what the swipe pad sounds like. I have had some trouble lately with the mouse working with window's eight. I hope the new up date for window's helps that.

Windows 8.1 is great on legacy support, and if you can get past the Start screen, which you can disable with a few hidden checkboxes, the experience isn't much different. The apps list is bigger, and you have gestures. I haven't had any issues with it, and can't figure out why people are bashing 8.1 so hard. MS bumbled into something late like they always do, but they seem to recover OK.

1) the keyboard can not be removed from the case, it is integrated. Anyway, I have never tried to remove it.2) I think it is a kind of lighter case for me.What the case interests me the most is it is easy to use and is very convenient for input.

I used Rupp's installation method and it seems to be the easiest. I also had to purchase a Bluetooth dongle. The magic trackpad control panel is very helpful. Now that I have everything installed, the trackpad works like a charm. The tracking is very smooth. I think the best way to drag is to hold down the left button at the bottom of the trackpad and move your finger on the trackpad.

I installed the Developer Preview of Windows 8 (32 bit). All of the Acer drivers seem to be compatible. It took a while to download all of them from the support website and install them, but after doing so and installing the required applications, it runs really smooth and has a very "touch friendly" interface. One thing I dislike is that my folio cover prevents some of the swipe gestures necessary for Win8. I've had a couple of random shut downs and a few program crashes (i.e. Mobipocket Reader gives me some problems [also you can't easily exit full screen mode without the keyboard dock]). The onscreen keyboard is substantially better in Win8. Some of the metro apps are either buggy or just incompatible. There is a game called Labyrinth that doesn't seem to do anything at all. The "Socializer" gets stuck in Facebook login mode forever. All that said, I will be purchasing Windows 8 as soon as it comes out for my Acer W500. It is so much easier to use than Win 7 with the touch and boots in 8 - 13 seconds.

My Kids are using the touch keypad and it fits perfectly. I am sorry but I have no way of knowing if it would hold a touch keyboard. Did you try contacting the seller?

I didn't have a problem with the touch pad. However, I did purchase a mouse to use with it because of the work I do on the laptop.

It has some issues. The touchpad stops working sometimes apparently without any reason. Also it gets very slow sometimes, hopefully that's because of windows so it could be fixed with an update. I'd say it's good for a student, my question would be, What kind of student? what software are you using? FYI, it can run autocad and solidworks well...
