    Is the tackpad still rubberized on the 9150?

    I currently have an 8150 and the rubberized trackpad is quite terrible. Is the 9150's track pad also rubberized and if so who do I have to punch to make them stop doing that?

    Have to agree with you about the rubberised finish, it's horrible. I was thinking of replacing it with my old Asus trackpad.

    They did away with the rubberized chassis/trackpad on the NP9150.

    I like the rubber finish, I hate it being on the trackpad as well. A place I need to slide my finger across being covered in rubber is a stupid decision!

    So no rubber on the 9150 then?

    I just checked the pictures for P150EM and P151EM1 on sagernotebook.com and they look very different from the second view, P150EM looks almost brown. From the side with the usb3 ports on, they look identical, which is strange because their thickness is slightly different to accommodate for the backlit keyboard.
