The Logitech Wireless Trackpad is the Windows Magic Trackpad. Logitech built a fantastic product and it’s priced right at $50. Give it a chance, push through the pain, and you’ll likely love it.

It is the new de-facto mouse when not at a table or flat surface, but besides that, a mouse is a mouse is a mouse. I like it and recommend it, but it’s not magic.

The touch-sensitive area is plenty large, the surface feels wonderfully frictionless, tracking is smooth and the wireless appears to be robust ... the Wireless Touchpad ultimately suffers from its meager offering of multi-touch gestures next to its smaller competitors.

With this thing I won’t use my built-in touchpad on the laptop, and that’s a very good thing. I don’t hate Touchpads quite as much now.

If you're a regular touchpad user, you'll likely be in heaven as this is an expanded version of the device you're already used to. This would also be a option for those suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or other repetitive stress injuries who are looking for a non-mouse device to use.

Although constrained by the limits of Windows, the Wireless Touchpad does a nice job of bringing the touch-pad experience to desktop PCs.
