Go to Options>Screen/Keyboard, scroll down the Trackpad section and adjust the horizontal and vertical sensitivity.

No issues with my trackpad. Sold.

It's hard to find one that's firm, I'm on my third and they all either wobble/creak.

No trouble either. Solid.

Ever consider that the problem might be your obsessive behavior? Just a thought....

Trackpad works great. Huge improvement over the ball.

Anyone know how the trackpad on the Bold compares to the one on the curve?

Default How bad are they?

I got my fist one and it's fine...hmmm...are they that bad? Try using a trackball after a year....No up or down 'cause they get so dirty...

I'll take the trackpad anyday over the ball now...There was no way to fix a trackball.

Mine wobbles after a few glasses of wine! It seem to wobble more after Australian wine, and less after French or California wines!

My trackpad works perfectly. It is infinitely better than the old trackball system.

Guess its a hit or miss. A couple of people I know have a creaking and unleveled trackpad, others find it perfect like you guys

Maybe this is one of those "was your phone made in Canada or Mexico" things.
