    I was just reading a review of the M30/M35 and the reviewer mentioned that you could scroll down and across webpages by the swiping the touchpad. Does anyone know how to do this? I've never noticed this on my touchpad. Thanks in advance!

    I just got my notebook today, the m35 s-456. I believe this to be software controlled. The software is called synaptics pointing device. Mine loads in the tray. I also believe there is an update for it at the toshiba site.

    Goto the Control Panel and change the settings for your mouse (Synaptic Drivers), it has an option for scrolling. When configured, it should normally be on the right side of the glidepad and possibly the bottom. The right is for up/down, the bottom if for right/left.
