    One thing i've noticed, not only on my own system, but others i've seen in stores, is a keyboard that is not totally flat. Mine dips in the middle slightly, and is up a bit higher on the left. There doesn't seem to be any flex though, it's very firm, just not flat.

    From what i've seen in stores, almost every FE that i've seen has it, the AR's to a lesser degree, but it's still there...and by far the worst i've seen is on the TX models. I can't see how they've let some of these leave the factory.

    I've seen it on other manufacturers notebooks, but not with such frequency as on the Sony's.

    Anyone else notice this?
