    I've read in a bunch of reviews that this touch pad doesn't have multi touch capabilities. If some people look for or want this feature, it's actually on this laptop. You can assign certain actions to the corners, you can open programs with 3 finger clicks, you can navigate with 3 finger flicks, and scroll with two fingers. Didn't know all of that stuff existed in this laptop, so it's coolto know they're there!

    Edit: Sorry, the R3!
