I love the nipple mouse. I find it much less irritating on my wrists than a trackpad. Plus, it allows for a rapid transition between keyboard and mouse.

- pearle 14y agoI agree and I have disabled the trackpads in the bios settings for both of my Lenovo laptops. I just wish they could solve the slight movement drift you experience sometimes when using the ThinkPoint.
- nadahalli 14y agoOh. You echo my very pet peeve with the trackpoint. I hate the slight drift. I have a script that disables the trackpad. I will figure out how to do it in the bios.
- joezydeco 14y agoI've found that pressing directly down very hard on the stick will sometimes kill the drift.
- jodoherty 14y agoThe trackpoint always auto-calibrates itself when you let go of it. If you begin to get a drift, let go for a few seconds and it'll fix itself.
- joezydeco 14y agoThe drift I see is when your finger is off the stick and the cursor keeps moving. And it goes more than a few seconds.
- jarek 14y agoYeah, it'll do that because it's used to your finger being on the stick and thinks that's the neutral position. It's supposed to stop and recalibrate itself eventually, especially when it reaches the edge of the screen. I've never had that take more than a dozen seconds on my Thinkpads (X31, T60) but of course YMMV, yours might be actually buggy.
- jlgreco 14y agoI'm a fan of turning the entire trackpad into one giant scrollwheel (and cranking the palm-detection up). Might as well use it for something I figure.
