With two-handed typing does the touchpad get in the way of your palmrest? How is the two-handed typing experience?

Rarely, if ever. Besides, you can turn off the touchpad if it bothers your typing. I believe there might be an option to adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad as well.

We have experienced two laptops we had to return, they are freezing up during upload. The first we had someone look @ right away and was told to return for hard drive was bad. When 2nd one came and started the same problem we sent it back the following day. When we tried to contact Acer because we could'nt even get online with is they wanted $20.00 right away to try to help. That did if for me. We are still waiting for refund from Amazon.!!! Any touchpad was ok, it was centered correctly. Good Luck!!!

Hello Hibby! Well, I am not sure I am the one to answer this question to your satisfaction. First of all, I am a 3 -4 finger typist, and rarely rest my palms on the laptop. Therefore, I have no problem with the touchpad getting in the way of my typing. When I use this laptop more for typing, I will be using my laptop easel with a bluetooth connected full-size keyboard. Hope this helps. Mike.

I wish I could. I think the Seller should have some Link or info to. I know I wanted to Lock the Touch Pad since I was using Keyboard so the document would not Errouniously move on me. But, I just worked around it and put a cut out from a file folder over it taped where It would not feel the sensitivity of my hands hitting the Touch Pad. If I need the Touch Pad, I just fold it back. Hope You get something from the Vendor on this. Good Information to have and I agree it should be somewhere.ScoTT

I use the keyboard on my lap, I have not had any problems. There is a little "grove" for the feet to fit into. If the angle was to great, maybe the feet would slip out.

It depends on the size of your fingers. Mine are pretty small, so it's fairly easy for me. But the only two-finger guesture I've found on this thing is scrolling, which is done by slinding two fingers left or right (not up or down, unfortunately). The keyboard is quite small, so its mainly a handheld keyboard.

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.

I have a Goldtouch split & tented keyboard that I place in front of the Contour mouse. I wouldn't be able to work without them. The difference in my upper extremity conditions is profound. Love that mouse!!!!!!

You are probably brushing the touchpad. You might be able to find a setting to disable the touchpad while you are typing. Personally, I always use a mouse and disable the touchpad (mainly because of this problem)

No and no. It is intended to be held when being used. If you are doing some small mousing on the touchpad maybe but generally you will be holding with one or two hands. If you need a more regular keyboard there are options but this is not it.

A tad. As a small handed person it is ok to use but not to type papers or extended sentences. It is almost way easier just to use the split keyboard on screen. It is a bit bulky and heavier due to this keyboard and overall I decided to turn it off and not use it. I would have rather just bought a regular case. I'd say that it really is not worth getting with little typing or a lot of typing. Too small even for little hands!

With the wrist extension on the bottom it supports the entire left hand to the bottom of the palm. The Right hand however is only supported up to half of the palm when typing. Its not a big deal for me because I can rest my right palm on my desk. It would go well without the extension and a extra even support added for it has legs at the front of the keyboard plus the two different heights on the back. Its very adjustable, I love it!

I'm left-handed, but I use both hands to control the roller mouse. Since the mouse functions are right in front of the space bar on your keyboard, you can easily use either hand. The wrist rest (which is padded and comfortable) is longer on the right because of the way keyboards are designed with arrow keys and number pads on the right side.

Works fine with left hand. I am right-handed but go left for the mouse. This frees up my right hand so that I'm not constantly switching from pen to mouse and then back to pen. I also love that I can have my laptop a few feet away and am able to control it without having to stretch or lean over to reach for it.

It could be that you're hitting the sides rather than the center; since the bottom side serve a as left-right click buttons in a mouse, you generally have to click towards the center of touchpad. I've experienced what you say, but I figured it out by trial and error.

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.

This has adjustable straps even on your thumb so you adjust it to your liking. but if you type the correct way it will get in your way I use it for my left hand so I am good, I tried it on my right hand and could not type with it. But it has relieve my pain, I have arthritis in my wrist and what the doctors call a gaming thumb. I hope that answers your question.

Yes! It is Lefty friendly. There's a setting on the pen that allows you to switch it over for lefties! That way all the text on the screen isn't upside down.

Yes the keypad to the left is designed as a gamers left hand paradise. It works perfectly, allowing a far greater maneuverability and capability when gaming.
