Any chance to have a trackpoint-style pointing device in the future?

• phinnaeus 4y ago
  Are there any patent issues to deal with for that?

  Just to pile on, I would love to buy a Framework laptop instead of more ThinkPads, but I really can't do without a pointing stick keyboard. I even have a Tex Shinobi* for my desktop! I hope that Framework or a 3rd-party accessory can fill this gap in the market. * https://tex.com.tw/products/shinobi https://tex.com.tw/products/shinobi

    To pile on even more... A lot of Linux users used to buy ThinkPad because of the Linux compatibility, the modularity and the build quality, but got addicted to the trackpoint, and this has become the only reason we keep buying them. A competitor would be very welcomed!whoever is going to take that market will have followers for a long time.

      Piling up to the pile, the lack of trackpoint is what prevents me to buy a framework laptop. Please :-)
