    Hey,

    I've read a lot of threads at Apple Support where people are saying there isn't the Two-Finger Right Click option in the 15.4" Macbook Pro's. Is this true? If it is, is there a firmware upgrade which fixes this problem or perhaps a working hack/plug-in?

    Thanks :)

    Right now, I'm on my Macbook which I got 3 days early, and the two finger click works perfectly fine. Seeing how MBP are pros I'm sure they always had it anyways, even if they didnt for some reason I'm sure any new MBP's being shipped contain the new firmware updates.

    The 2 finger click does NOT come with the MacBook Pro 15" model. It is available on the 17" model. Howvere, it is suppose to be released with the 10.4.7 update. Someone also was able to extract the driver for the 2 finger click and it can be installed on the 15 MBP. The problem with that is, you have to disable it and then re-enable it every time the computer is rebooted or turned off.
