Yea thats the only problem I have with the microsoft driver, but I need the disable option when its on my desk so I'm stuck with the Alps driver

I also like the MS driver but it has another problem for me, the pointer moves too slow. Even on the fastest setting. I have to make two swipes to go up and down the screen. I get used to it though.

[*]Trackpad is considered slippery by some. Dimensions are 3-5/16" x 1-9/16" for those who want to apply a SkinStyler.

?

What's with those dimensions?

I'm thinking of placing a skinstyler on my trackpad, however I have no idea what type of measurement the poster has used. What is the width and height millimetre (mm) format?

Thanks

Inches. 3 and 5/6th (3.833) inches by 1 and 9/16th (1.5625) inches

I use an iphone screen protector to cover up the touchpad just place it over the touchpad and draw the line then cut it accordingly.

I just bought a DM3 2010us with the K325 for 2 weeks but it's still in the box. Anybody has one yet? I don't see many reviews out of this one.

ps. I owned 2 DM3 -10xxUS before so I know the form factor of the DM and I like it so I decided to get another one. (Sold the other two)

The new AMD processors in the new DM3s are actually slightly slower clock for clock, but the HD4225 graphics is much better than the 3200HD and the new generation is also much cooler.

Not sure about battery life. The only thing I don't like about the new DM3s is that they now have those ugly engraving designs on the lid and wrist areas... looks hideous.

@ The passenger, that's a great idea. I'm going to order one and do it. Did you use matte or glossy?
They go for about 80cents on ebay for one.

Let me know how it goes! sounds interesting.

Will do Phil, Gotta wait until 22nd when I come back to the states though, still in Turkey.
I'm thinking matte, it won't reflect as much, and it's also not a fingerprint magnet, and I know it should let the finger glide easier than glossy.

I had a few glossy one laying around so I used those. The touchpad feels much better with that screen protector. You should get a matte one. I had a matte (anti glare) screen protector on my iPhone.
