[downtick]

I just got the TP2 like 2 days ago. It seems there is a piece of plastic on each side when you slide the keyboard open. I have opened it and shut it maybe 20 times so far and now the sticky piece of plastic on each side is starting to fold up. It is now preventing me from closing the keyboard. Anyone know if it is ok to remove these 2 pieces of what appears to be tape from each side? I removed them from my 2 sides completely, as I had no choice. Anyone know?
