--While we're all talking about alternate colors, does anyone know if there is a place
that sells different color trackpoint covers? I saw a blue one at either PORT or Road
Warriors website. But I don't know if it was a photoshop job just to get peoples
attention. Thanks in advance.
Following on the trackpoint suggestions, maybe a different texture would be good like a
the one on the 3m mousepads so us sweaty fingered people wouldn't go slipping and
sliding while we're pointing. Something with grooves would help. Hmm maybe 3m could
come up with something like a hybrid material. Just a thought.
