    Are you supposed to be able to click on the Trackpoint? I've Googled and found some people that said you could and that you had to choose this option under the mouse control panel. If it's there I don't see it... I even updated the driver to make sure I had the newest.

    I recently have been using a Vaio P and I really like that you can tap on the pointing device to use it as a mouse button.

    Thanks in advance!

    It is definitely possible on the x200, but I'm not sure on the x100e.

    On the x200 open the UltraNav/TrackPoint tab in mouse properties (Fn+F8). I believe its buried under an advanced options tab.

    I always found click to select a bit too unpredictable for my tastes (and thus leave it disabled), but to each their own.

    you can

    I know this because I had to replace a keyboard in one that it got stuck on all the time,and kept wanting to make selection boxes everytime you moved it,really annoying. Replacing the keyboard (which is pretty easy btw) fixed it.
