Samsung updates Display Manager for the Q1
One of the early issues with the Samsung Q1 may be resolved. Initial experiences from several folks, including me, showed that the Display Rotation function would apparently stop working; a real shame since the Q1 is the only UMPC with support for rotation. A few days ago, Samsung released an update for the Display Manager and folks over at the Origami Project forums are reporting positive findings.
When I recently rebuilt the Q1, I almost didn’t reinstall Samsung Update Plus, which is the application that periodically checks for Q1 software upgrades. Luckily I did install it and sure enough, I’ve got the new version as well. So far so good for me; folks apparently had screen rotation issues after hibernation, but I tend to solely use Standby and not Hibernate, so I can’t verify that fix.

I’ve had the update for a few days and I still have the hibernate problem. Not a big deal though because this little gadget is just what I’ve been waiting for for years.
Is it safe to store the Q1 in the neoprene sleeve ( with the fan vent exposed) while in standby? Your help would be appreciated.
I also want to take a moment to thank you folks for the informative site. I heavily researched the Q1, at you site, before buying it. I have also checked it daily since buying it. Without the information on your site, I doubt I would have even purchased this great little gadget.
Thanks again,
