Is the trackpad glass?

No Jon it is some kind of plastic or acrylic. It works great, does a lot of different tasks.

No. Believe it or not it's a lightly textured metal plate. Thought it was just plastic at first, but I tested it and the surface is magnetic!

Unfortunately, no, so hello finger marks (weekly cleaning kind of solves this problem).

yes it is. Although I would hold off on getting this if you are running Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 as experienced some problems with it on those OS. To the point that I went back to my Solar 750 keyboard. Although I haven't used it in a couple of months because the Solar keyboard has been working so well.

Yes it is. The sticky tape is included and already applied to the glass. But I do not advise buying this product. The IC chip or something is defective because the home button does not work and it goes crazy when pressure is applied near the home button.

No. It's fitted specifically (and quite snugly) to Apple's wireless keyboard and trackpad.

This looks like this only has one trackpad button (presumably the left)...is that the case? I can't find the spec on Amazon or on Acer's website.

No, the glass doesn't have any printing on it. The menu and the undo button areas are clearly visible

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!

My guess, is that is iffy. Desktop glass fairly thick. Do love the powerbot though.

Yes. It is a hard piece of plastic that the Apple wireless keyboard and trackpad snap into. I use it on my lap all the time

Screen is glass, but it does not appear to be Gorilla Glass; youy CAN scratch it if you are not careful.

Mine isn't but the multi touch gesture pad makes up for it. IMO I don't like having fingerprints all over the screen anyway

No there is not a mousepad...I use either the keyboard or use the touch screen.

Hello. I believe that the "retina" part refers to the screen. There should be no problem with the trackpad. Mine has worked great.

brother or sister, the screen is matte, not glossy. i ordered this notebook a little while ago and it just arrived today, best decision [in regards to electronics] i have ever made, ever. i owned four windows notebooks before purchasing this one, and using this notebook [and mac os] actually simulates the feeling of "a breath of fresh air".

Not that I know of. The track pad is just used for scrolling vertically or horizontally.

Haven't checked. But the touchpad stopped working in less than a month. Don't buy Acer if i had to do it again.

Yes, it's glass, it's easy to apply and it's very very good. I actually found it makes the touchscreen more sensitive
