Most consumer laptops seem to have the touchpads, not eraserheads. But I have the same problem as Mogui with my Palm or other things touching the touchpad while I'm typing. It's terrible. In a Word document or email, for example, it means that I'm typing every now and then in random places, messing up my own document. I don't mind having them there, but I wish there were easy options to turn them off when there is an eraserhead on the laptop also.
The other problem I have with touchpads is that it sometimes registers my finger as a tap when I'm still dragging. But most people do like the touchpads, so obviously Mogui and I must be in the minority.

Clearly, they must work better for others than the do for me, or they'd've stopped putting them on laptops by now.
