     Use a trackball.  I know that one laptop already uses this method
(I believe it is the Macintosh Laptop [a Mac-LapTop ? ;-) ] ).  Also
provide a mouse port (and maybe a mouse garage) for those who still
want to use one (let's see, where *IS* the best place to roll the
mouse from this airplane seat? ;-) ).  I know that a lot of people
seem to like trackballs better than mice (I saw Dale Luck using one at
AmiExpo).
