Is this the one-piece touchpad or is it sectioned? I find the one-piece units hard to use.

Single piece. Sensitive enough that a light tap is all that is needed to activate any icon though. Yes, the left and right seem to be a bit harder to work but I find that with use it gets easier.

The touchpad is separate to the right and is easy to use. This is my best computer yet!

It is only one piece, the keyboard only. Your tablet goes in a slot that has the keyboard. One consideration that I found after I bought it, if you are someone that like to use all the fingers to type, I don't recommend this one because the keys are a little off the normal position so you cannot position your fingers on it as you used to.

It is one piece, but it works. The sensors are at either end. Left side of it is the left mouse button, right side is the right...

its referred to as multi-gesture. with 2 fingers (same hand, fingers side-by-side) drag down or up on the touchpad to move a scrollable page.

Hello. I have had my Acer Aspire One 10" for a few months. Has been fine until recently, the touch pad works for navigating, clicking. But the scroll function along the right and top of the touch pad have stopped working!!! Anybody know how to fix this problem? Thanks!

I didn't have a problem with the touch pad. However, I did purchase a mouse to use with it because of the work I do on the laptop.

For me the touchpad is smooth and responds nicely. I do pair mine though with a wireless mouse often or I'll use a stylus. Hope this helps! It is a great ultrabook!

Sorry, I have a very sensitive touchpad. Yes, I believe it is - it seems to be very well constructed. The inside pocket is not real spacious, but it should hold a couple of text books.

It's sensitive but as far as using all the touchpad gestures I'm gonna go ahead and say no because it's too small to be practical. However, on the bottom of the touchpad there is a small stripe for scrolling which can easily be done with one thumb. Unless you have the hands of a newborn baby I wouldn't plan on using gestures : )

I favored the touchpad and being over bluetooth for the application I'm using it on. Overall I'm quite happy with it for the price. Hope that helps :)

There is a latching flap that makes it a one position stand. The unit is well made and the keyboard/touchpad is great!

Just normal, as any other trackpad I've used. It is just bigger than what I'm used too. And the left and right clicks are hidden below the trackpad. And the software for it, works perfectly for Windows 8, with all the gestures and stuff.

You use the bottom left or right side of the pad. Sometimes I click the wrong side if I'm not paying attention though.

I think you may have a problem with the touchpad. Mine works fine right out of the box. You shouldn't have to do anything to make it work.

Yes, there's a touchpad with the two standard right and left click buttons - pretty standard equipment. Nothing exotic like a third button or a small speed mouse in the middle of the keyboard like what used to be fairly standard on laptops in the 90's. The touch pad and buttons work pretty well, but the OS is really geared toward touch screen, so you'll end up using that a lot unless you really know the windows commands and where all the menus are hidden in Windows 8.

Yes, it includes both the trackpad and the touchpad. No instructions, but you can find directions on youtube. I followed the directions on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75IddbU4eSo and it worked great.

It has a left/right bar below the touch pad. Push on the left or right side and it functions just like two separate buttons. Works fine.
