They did it again. I am very impressed.
A good product even better than before.
Hope Ubuntu comes to a high level for this nice hardware.

Actually the whole trackpad is a (physical) button, so tap to click should rather be disabled by default, since it would be rather redundant.
hi, i just bought a new macbook pro (i'm waiting for it…) and i'll installa a linux distro in dual boot with os x, probably ubuntu. I'll report here once tryed…
I'm also waiting for my order, but the known details seem to be this:
- The pad can be pressed down anywhere to activate a single click (obviously)
- For dragging, one can also use a second finger to make a click and it will be smart enough to register the click at the first finger's position (this sounds like it would conflict with a two-finger-tap gesture if it does anything else)
- It is possible to configure that clicks (or taps, not sure right now) in the bottom right corner of the pad register as second mouse button.
- Two and three finger gestures are the same, but there are also the new four finger gestures (up for show desktop, down for expose, left or right for application switcher).
I wonder if the new macbook can still be configured to give a right click on a two-finger click.
This can be done with the available version of synaptics.
there is no technichal difficulty here, only that it needs a change upstream, in synaptics, and in the applications... We might go for the MPX stuff while we're at it. It takes a big joint effort to get these things in place, but we will eventually get there.
It seems so:

There is a difference though... there is tap-to-click, and there there is clicking when two fingers are on the touchpad. This is already implemented in current Macbooks. However, on the new machine, both of these could essentially be the same gesture which is why the concern...
