I use a logitech optical mouse and a no name USB keyboard when "docked"

William,

Do you use the touchpad much at all? Mine is wearing out within 14 months - I think it's bad news that the buttons have worn out already. Thankfuly the spring isn't totally broken, so it's usable, but Sony should really use better materials.

Kee-Lo,

Sorry to hear the touchpad is wearing out after only 14 months.

I have never got on that well with my touchpad but since I have gone wireless I have started to use it more, as I use my laptop in different locations within the house, rather than previously mainly at my desk with a mouse and keyboard.

I still prefer a mouse but when not at my desk I tend to sit the laptop on my knees and just use the touchpad and laptop keyboard.

Would you be willing to fit a new one if you could source the par?

I think it would be pretty hard to do that.
After all it's not like I can't use it, the button's a bit loose, if I press it in a certain area it's nearly like new, wierd stuff.

Kee-Lo,

I hardly ever use the buttons on my GRX - use pad tapping, it's the way forward.
