I peeked into eee-control-daemon script and it looks like its using rfkill to
turn off bluetooth.  Can you expand on what you mean?

Does your Fn-F2 key turn off wlan but not bluetooth?  Or are you just saying
you want a control that turns off bluetooth but not wlan (eee-control gives a
GUI to toggle just one using rfkill).

Thats a fair statement and why I threw in "above 9 inches" part.  So probably
these 9 and 7 inch models need the disable HW features and Super Hybrid Engine
parts where as above 9 inches need only SHE part.

BTW: Since I last last wrote, I found out we can get touchpad toggle working
out of the box.  We just need to change eeepc-laptop/wmi to send F22 instead of
F13.  I'm working with upstream (kernel and udev) to get this working.
