Hot-Keys
The four Hot-Key buttons include Tab & Esc keys (these keys are particularly
useful in Tablet Mode) and a wheel key for scrolling/Enter key functionality.
(Move the wheel left or right for scrolling functions in much the same way as
the keyboard arrow keys; push the wheel in for Enter/Return functions.) In
"Cover
Tablet Mode the "Q" key is used to toggle the screen rotation between Land-
scape and Portrait configurations; it also acts as a power button. The table
below lists the function options depending upon the time duration the key is
pressed (see sidebar for use in Notebook mode).
