I've got a thinkpad X61 that I really like. It has a squareish screen
so I've never bothered trying to get it to rotate between landscape
and portrait which matters more on the widescreen tablets.
There are a couple of things that can be a bit annoying: log in and
unlock from the screensaver assuming you have access to a keyboard is
the one that annoys me most. You can get an onscreen keyboard for them
but it takes a bit of hacking to get set up (I gave up and got the
fingerprint reader working instead as it is still accessible in tablet
mode on this machine).
