I emailed A.I. and asked a few questions I could think of of the top of my head and here they are.

Subject: Question Touch Book

I have a few questions regarding features that I and other people on a
forum that Im a member of we need some clarification on.

1. When programs are installed, to what memory are the installed, the
microSD?
[AI] The microSD card performs the same function a hard drive does on a standard computer. That's where programs will go by default, but, depending on the app, you may also be able to run it off of a USB thumb drive connected to one of the internal USB parts.

2. How does the cover come off to access the internal USB, and would
it be possible to order an extra cover or two..as there are some
modders that would be interested in integrating a usb card reader into
the cover.
[AI] There's a small latch on the cover you use to disconnect it. Unfortunately, I don't know whether or not we'll be able to sell spare covers, but we'll most likely be able to work something out.

3. Will apps from any other linux distribution be able to be
installed on the touchbook? Something in particular that has been
asked is if a usb gps dongle can be put inside, will there be any
support if there are linux drivers for it and if any navigation
programs are possible.
[AI] Most Linux applications will run on the Touch Book, depending primarily on whether or not the app can run on an ARM processor (most applications don't care what processor they're used with, but some will require ports). In general, if the drivers for an accessory are included in the Linux kernel, you'll be able to use that accessory with your Touch Book.

Anything else anyone can think of that I can ask?
