The Acer Aspire Switch 10 has a hybrid mechanism that actually works, and it has a decent keyboard and touchpad for such a small body

Abstract: The Acer Aspire Switch 10V is a nifty little number that runs Intel's latest processor, Cherry Trail, and is powered by Intel's new Atom X5-Z8300. This reasonably lightweight tablet features a magnetic dock, chiclet keyboard, and an easy-to-use trackpad...
