Obviously the hx4700 already has a working touchscreen so it's not obvious what benefit a second mouse device would add. And I'm not aware of any other platforms which use the NavPoint. I agree, the NavPoint is pretty useless as a touchpad. I think there's some kind of Logitech Wireless Keyboard / Remote that has a NavPoint, but I'm not aware of anything with them that would run linux either. regards Philipp
