I was going to put this into Mobile Computing, but seeing that this is more Android specific, will ask it here. Forgive me if this was the wrong decision. I have an Acer Iconia and here of late a lot of the updates for some of my apps are allowing access to my contacts, my camera and allow it...

So I have talked with ASUS and they cannot tell me WHERE the magnet would go if I had one. They also can't tell me anything about the magnet, except that it may be in relation to one of the screws. I have looked into the screw zones, and neither of the screws are magnetic, and nothing is of...

At least you don't have to worry about heat... hehe...

Okay, where do I locate where the magnet was, or is? ASUS won't tell me, and my research into the issue on the web leads nowhere. Does anyone have a picture of an ASUS magnet, or an idea about where on the bezel/screen it should be located? This is crazy, all of this is by a simple magnet...
