After I finished with some errands for a few hours, I settled in for an evening of LJ and email... voila, no more blackouts. Tonight anyways.
So it seems like the most likely thing is a short in the screen hinge ;P
Ergo the puzzle of the future. Izzit worth fixing? Prolly not.. well outa warranty.
I could leave it open a lot more often. I kinda like that idea, despite it getting more dusty, at least I could be more assured of reliable use.
However, hey... it's a laptop. arf! I generally haul this around (in its nice case of course) to do my work, and now I gotta start feeling guilty and walking on glass just to keep it portable? *sigh*
Putting the two options on the scales, I'd rather have a dependable screen, so I s'pect I'll haveta keep this touchy tablet relegated to the home more often.
I'll keep ya posted, and thanks again for your helps n comments! :>

Mebbe one of these years I'll actually catch you on there at the same time too!
