    Doesn't seem to work for me. Only works in IE and MSN. All other apps (including Firefox, and Word) only seem to work with vertical scrolling. Any way to make this work?

    I didn't even know the trackpoint offered side scrolling. Is it enabled by default or should I use some special setting/driver?

    Enabled by default, I assume. It was setup that way when I bought the machine (perhaps using the most up-to-date drivers on Leveno's site?)

    I discovered that when I pressed the scroll key multiple times (no particular reason) and a window popped up asking me if I wanted to learn how to use the scrolling feature of the trackpoint..
