    Hi!
    Just bought Q210 a week or so ago and I love it, but a few days ago I noticed that the lover right corner of the touchpad seemed to "stick out", I felt it while moving my finger across.
    Taking a closer look at it I noticed that lover left corner was also affected by this :(
    Pressing on the corners puts them in place for a few seconds, but then they just pop out again, and when it pops there is this "unglueing" sound.
    I was googling around and found this:
    forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=42240 (sorry, not allowed to post urls)
    It's exactly the same problem I'm experiencing, only with different notebook.

    I am wondering if other Q210 owners have this problem or I'm just unlucky...

    Hi.

    My Touchpad seems fine, but i use a mouse and raley use it.

    It sound like it`s faulty and you should get your Q210 repaired or replaced.

    Regards

    John.

    Hmmm, it one of those problems thats not major but will bug you for the rest of your laptops life.

    I, judging from what you have said, would get some standard superglue, poke the nozzle under the touchpad (not forcefully) and put a couple drops in the affected corners, get a paperweight or something similar to apply a fair amount of pressure and leave it overnight. Be sure there is no exess superglue around the touchpad otherwise it will look like crap.

    Dont blame me if the above doesn't work :)

    EDIT: BTW I'm not suffering this problem and no other Samsung laptop owners have complained so its probably a minor issue that unfortunately has been dropped on you :eek:
