Can we make this a bit more specific to this device (through a MatchProduct or vid/pid matching). Also, i notice we don't use MatchIsTablet in our current configuration snippets, maybe we should start using those? Except for touch screens I believe this will be set on all devices we care about but shouldn't be set on the keyboard?
