Looks like they've fully abandoned the external trackpad mouse buttons. That's a shame, I hate integrated trackpad buttons.<p>That being said, it's neat that there's the possibility of a retro thinkpad- they remain one of my favorite brands despite the whole spyware scandal.
I love the ThinkPad keyboard and 'erase head' pointer: so much so that I bought the ThinkPad USB keyboard and use it for my desktop work.<p>This intrigues me and if it comes true, I hope the hardware plays nice with Linux as it might become a long term companion.
