Are you aiming for dualhead support (in difference from the 'video
display hotkey' cloning question)? If so, a question about it might be
in order.

As you mentioned in Stuttgart, some laptops ship with an LED on the mute
key that's hardwired to indicate the power state of the sound processor.
Do we need a question about those as well, or will we be doing
soft-muting only in the near future?

Under advanced hardware, I suggest a question about built-in storage
readers or authentication devices, if there are plans to support those.
The hp nc4010, for instance, ships with an integrated SD-card reader.
The hp nc6220 comes with a smart-card reader, and the Thinkpad T42 with
a fingerprint scanner.

Cheers,
-IK
