Instead of Windows +I, you can also move your mouse to the bottom right to bring up the charms bar, and click on Settings.

"I can rebuild myself, I have the technology!"

What if you moved without trying to observe it, like quickly open your hand like paper as your hand comes down, then immediately close it into a fist?

Does anyone have any information how this works? I have a Hopper, and the last thing I recorded had commercials. Is it something to be enabled in the settings, does it happen automatically, or is there a button to hit to do it like the 30 second skip? I can't find anything when poking around the device, and googling it only brings up the lawsuit for me.

The removed it by the Consumer Preview. If you move the mouse cursor to the bottom left corner, a thumbnail of the start screen comes up. Clicking on that brings up the start screen. You can also just hit the Windows Key. I'm guessing on windows 8 tablets, there will be a prominent hardware home/windows key.

Have you tried updating to Android 4.0/Ice Cream Sandwich? the ICS Browser has many enhancements that seems to have been taken from the Android version of Chrome, like tabs. Its been fast and stable for me. If there isn't an OTA update for your tablet, there should be a good rom to use on xda-developers.

I use ICS Browser+ a browser built on the stock ICS Browser, with added functionality, like the ability to remove the normal menu and use a semi-circular "quick-controls" menu that pops up when you slide your finger in from the left or right side of the screen.

You mean this kind of friend?

Microsoft DOES do it, just not with Windows, but with the Xbox 360. When a JTAG exploit was found by free60, Microsoft fixed it just before they released the exploit to run homebrew and unsigned code. The fix? Use a new bootloader and blow a fuse on the CPU dye that was part of the old bootloader, nullifying the exploit. Unfair and shady? Given the possibility of a real brick if the dashboard update failed, you betcha. Illegal? Not so far as I've seen.
