Default [Q] Keyboard use/demo videos?

I know no one has the keyboard yet, but does anyone have links to videos that show how the touchpad/dpad works?

Specifically I want to know that I won't have to reach up and touch the screen when i'm using it in laptop mode.

Is there a cursor present? Does it work everywhere or just the browser?

I dont recall where I saw it, but I can confirm that a cursor is present. It works the same as the lapdock for the Motorola Atrix. Clicking is like tapping the screen, click + drag is a swipe. Pretty simple concept.

There was a pretty good video in Italian by HDblog or something like that. I'll see if I can find a link, but you could probably find it pretty easily on YouTube.

It showed a cursor on the homescreen, plus multitouch gestures on the trackpad (pinch-zoom, two finger scroll, etc.)

Edit: I think this is it, but can't confirm because my office blocks youtube.

You can also 2-finger scroll through your homescreens using the touchpad.

This thread has a couple of You Tube videos of an actual user with the keyboard dock. Look at the second one for the main overview of the keyboard in use. I have to say I can't wait for my dock to come through, it really does look awesome.

This series of videos by Asus does have some examples of keyboard usage, particularly if you scroll down it will show the dock being connected to an external hard drive. Nice!
