There's a huge difference between knowing and understanding ;-) Hence why I also included the question about smart phones, because I believe that while interaction via touch-pad is indirect and relative (you don't actually see the screen under your finger; you move objects relative to where you start), the interaction is physically pretty much same -- when you move right it moves right (whatever it is you're moving -- on notebook usually cursor, on touch-screen usually some object), when you tap, it clicks exactly where you are... Also some people seemed to misunderstand -- I do understand why you can accidentally tap while typing (i.e. accidentally use touch-pad, while using keyboard) and that's already handled by an existing configuration option. The only thing I personally don't understand (but accept that it happens) is that you can actually use touch-pad for moving and meanwhile accidentally tap. Martin
