    Lenovo R61i, 15" 7650A25 purchased doesnt have a touchpad. Is it possible to purchase Lenovo touchpad, any cabling, and proper palmrest. I'm guessing driver is easily found or on system already.

    I tried researching abit, but couldnt find the touchpad anywhere. It seems lot's of places carry the palmrest.

    Has anybody done this before, any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks!!

    Can you even buy a R61i without the touchpad??
    I would think that they don't make them any different so I GUESS that if you ordered the palmrest with the touchpad it will fit(I am guessing).
