[mpallo]

Had a chance to play with the 8520 over the weekend. Just was wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the durability of the optical trackpad vs. the trackball. I just don't care for it. Seems like it could scratch very easily and seems cheap when it clicks. Almost like cellophane plastic. I know the ball can get dust (I always use canned air on it) but I am curious to see how well the trackpad will hold up.
