    Is there any chance the xps 1645 will have a multi-touch mouse pad anytime soon? I find that feature in the macs really cool. Since I'm about to buy a 1645, was just wondering if it was worth waiting sometime. Thanks for any replies.

    It technically already does. You can pinch to zoom in/out like you do on a Macbook. It's just not as refined or smooth as Apple's implementation.

    Also make sure you update to version14.xxxxx, I believe that Dell provides 13.xxxxx. I have updated and it has many more options and settings like you are speaking of.
