I bought this thinking that it would bring a little bit more of a Mac like experience to my windows 7 desktop. My experience after using it for over a week as my primary mouse is that I'm ready to go back to my trackball. The device has a number of shortcomings. Not all of the surface can be used for scrolling. There is a good amount of dead space around the edges. The surface itself is just plastic. On a Macbook Pro it is glass and your fingers just glide across the surface. The two finger scrolling behavior cannot be customized so if you are using OS X Lion and coming to this your muscle memory will need to adapt. Also the scrolling jumps around sometimes when you take your fingers off and put them back on. I briefly thought about turning the pad around but the driver options are pretty limited and you cannot switch the left & right mouse button behavior nor the axis that the pointer moves when using a single finger. The gesture support in the device seems to be limited to just 1-4 fingers moving in a single direction. There are no advanced gestures such as the pinch & zoom gesture found in just about every tablet, smart phone and Mac these days. The device can perform a click on tap but I find myself tapping more than once to get it to be recognized. More often I just resort to the mouse buttons which are near my thumb but after half a day of use I can feel some strain in my thumb from the weird clicking angle my hand is usually in. This device should be purchased if you want a solid basic touch pad like you would find in a basic no frills laptop. If you are looking for something that will give you advanced multi-touch features and a comfortable user experience pass on this device.

The Logitech Wireless Touch pad works well, it's a nice shape, and it looks good. The smooth plastic feels good to the finger tips. In almost all ways I like it, and wish I liked it enough to use it.
The problem is that there is no texture difference in the plastic helping you finger feel when it has passed from the sensitive inner zone to the insensitive outer zone. The effect is to produce a sluggish nonresponsive sensation every time the finger strays too far from the middle of the pad. I bought a laptop computer in September that I returned to the store after a few hours of use because its touchpad had the same problem; you can't feel the boundary of the sensitive region. For me, the missing boundary makes it feel too unresponsive, but maybe other people won't mind. Logitech could easily fix this. They did make a narrow slightly indented curve at each of the four corners of the sensitive area. If they were to extend that same effect to form a rectangular box around the sensitive region, the touchpad would be nearly perfect. The Logitech Touchpad is a great idea, but in its current form I'm not going to keep using it.

It's a great option if you would like to use a trackpad for you PC, but, unfortunatly, it is not a great trackpad. It does the job and is very usable, but small quality problems do add up. First, it's plastic. I am OK with plastic, but your finger will not glide across this as smooth as the glass trackpads made by Apple...it makes a difference. But then of course I did not really expect it to. Second, the dead space around the edges (the corner markings) are frustrating. I find myself frequenty with the feeling the my mouse stopped working only to look down and see I am in a "dead zone". I'll adjust, but the design did not have to be that way. As for mutli-point gestures - they are there but not great. Two finger scrolling feels a little rough, but it works.
My expectations for this trackpad were not high, and I got exactly what I expected: a decent trackpad that helps me off load some work from my mouse hand to another input device (I use a mouse and this trackpad at the same time - one on each hand). Would I buy it again? Yes. It is the best I have seen for a PC and I am glad I got it. But I guess if you want real quality in hardware you need to go with Apple. That's my next move.

Works good; not as good as an Apple Trackpad, but still good.
I'd give it five stars if it had a raised edge surrounding the sensor part of the touch area. For some reason, the pad surface has about a 1/2 inch non-sensor surrounding the... Read more

Too bad Apple already did it right
This is obviously a knock-off of the Apple Magic Trackpad, and as such it's a really bad implementation of something Apple already did right. Read more
