What's wrong with it? Does the little hook come up when you flip the latch button under the trackpad?

Or is the latch not latching properly? The top latch section (up above the top of the screen, next to the wifi/BT/HDD indicator lights) has a small magnet inside that holds the latch shut. I've had my 301 coem back from service a few times where they've forgotten to put the magnet back in and it won't latch properly... is that the same problem you;re having?
