On the Dell latitude c-800 laptop I have there's a touchpad on the keyboard. When I took the machine over to smartco I asked a technician to tell me if the touchpad was working and he told me it is working because when I put my finger on it and move my finger around on the touchpad, a cursor moves matching my finger motions. What we also noticed though was speakup did not track that cursor and speak as text was traversed. Would it even be useful to enable speakup with touchpads?
