    I'm loving the multi-touch scrolling on the new S13A's, but mine seems to be a bit off. Scrolling down with two fingers is fine, but when I scroll UP with two fingers, it does not register sometimes, and causes the cursor to move instead. This irritates the hell out of me when I'm going through long document.

    Is the multi-touch scrolling okay on other S13A's?

    I haven't noticed this on mine - sounds like the second finger isn't registering on the trackpad, but then again it works when you scroll down... Very strange. Do the side-to-side swipes (forward/back) work?

    forward and back work perfectly fine. I think mine may be a hardware issue if others aren't experiencing the same problem..

    But if it were a hardware issue I don't think you would be able to scroll down either, since it's basically the same thing but in reverse. I would look at software first - maybe un/reinstalling the trackpad driver?
