    my major issue with my thinkpad is the touchpad scrolling. I use both the eraser and the touchpad at different times and when I use the right side of the touchpad to scroll it almost always screws up. the cursor will blick between the normal arrow and scrollbar and sometimes a "shadowed" cursor. I've downloaded the lateast ultranav drivers but that doesn't help. any clues? I find this happens most often if firefox but it happene elsewhere too.

    I think the cursor's supposed to do that- it does the same thing on my T60. Is the scrolling itself affected, or just the cursor?

    scrolling is effected. Scrolling also 'hangs' in MS Word. Its very annoying

    Have you tried playing around with the sensitivity settings for the UltraNav devices? When first testing out my machine, I set my pad's sensitivity as high as possible and things started getting a bit wonky when I tried to move the cursor and scroll.
