The other wierd scrolling that has the funny shaped black thing when you tap with two fingers in the scroll bar at the side works consistently, but I don't like it as much.

I've found the scrolling method on my 1005HAB to be far superior to any other laptop I've ever used – that includes ones with the standard scroll on the right of the trackpad, to the two finger scroll.

For those who don't know (and this is not a hack – it involves changing nothing at all) – scrolling is done by starting off at a corner and then doing circles – basically the same as on an ipod.

So – to scroll from top to bottom – do clockwise circles starting from the top right corner of the trackpad
- to scroll from bottom to top – do clockwise circles starting from the bottom right corner

scrolling left to right works basically the same way starting at the bottom of the trackpad.

I find that this is much better than the either of the other scrolling methods (single touch on the right, or dual touch anywhere) for scrolling lengthy documents. Also the fact that you can scroll horizontally is pretty cool – and not a feature of laptops I've had in the past.
