    The problem isn't with finding a mouse to use instead of the touchpad, its using the onboard keyboard without hitting the touchpad which is the problem. Got any leads on a good semi cheap wireless keyboard and mouse, maybe bluetooth?

    The Alps 7.5.303.105 driver has a fix for that. It loses some multi-touch functions though. It didn't mater to me 'cause the multi-touch would always act weird on me.

    Cool, I'll try it out, I don't care too much for multitouch (its slow, and not that responsive), as long as the touchpad can scroll down with the right side area then its all good for me.

    Yeah, it still supports that. And it has this cool spiral scroll thing I like to use when browsing big pages like Engadget.

    For when I use the 311 on a table with enough space, I am using a mouse, I bought the HP Wireless Confort Mouse for CAD24 in my local WM, it's a "nano" receiver so I can let it always plugged.

    see it here:
    http://www.amazon.com/HP-Wireless-Eco-C ... B001W6Q26W

    What I like is the 4 way scroll wheel, you can scroll left/right when a web page is too wide, and the "previous" and "next" button are useful too.

    The microsoft Bluetooth Notebook mouse 5000 is what i've bought, but what is srsly needed on the 311 is the possibility to turn of the touchpad
