The trackpoint is also amazing, and I know exactly what you mean. I have never really been able to use trackpads so have always stayed near laptops that have trackpoints. The X1 carbon is the first laptop where I enjoy using the trackpad. It is odd for me too. I still often use the trackpoint, but for scrolling around web pages I often end up using the trackpad (sometimes with the trackpoint buttons which are right above it). Toshiba and Thinkpad seem to be the only vendors that seem to still include trackpoints.
