    i have a sony fe and i have a wireless mouse by microsoft.
    the thing that is irritating is that when i type, my palm touches the pad sometimes and it messes things up. is there a way to disable it?

    if it is the same as the sz then yes. go to vaio central, go to mouse and keyboard, and disable it from there. i actually made my S1 button a shortcut to that window so i can quickly enable/disable it.

    My HP has a button by the touchpad. Are there any other laptop manufacturers out there that make this button?? To me it's a great feature that takes up minimal space...you'd think it would be on more (unless HP has some sort of patent on it or some goofy thing...)
