Is there a trackpad skin on the market with a raised or textured bump to divide the touchpad into (virtual) left and right button areas?

I've seen a product called "TrackPad Slick Film #501" which I could probably use to divide the touchpad into 2 areas, but I want three: touchpad, left button, and right button.

I'm waiting for Apple to ship my new 17" but I'm already familiar with Apple's buttonless touchpads. They aren't for me. I'm sure someone will suggest that I just "get used to the buttonless touchpad" but it's hard for me to agree that lack of tactile feedback is somehow a good thing.

I don't own a MacBook, but I'm pretty sure they don't have virtual right/left click buttons. Single finger click on the trackpad is left and two finger/CTRL + click does a right click.

update: i found a product that gets me half way there: www.skinstyler.com­/macbutton­-c­-34.html - at least that divides the touchpad into pad+button, but it still just gives me a single button instead of separating the pad into a left and a right button.
