Laptop with trackpoint - where can I buy?

Options
I wonder if anyone could recommend a decent laptop for me?

I have been looking for something with both a webcam and the trackpoint (nipple mouse). Dell Inspiron was suggested but unless I'm being totally daft I can't find one with both these features. Also, I don't want a really big one - 15" screen or smaller would be ideal. The budget is £700ish so the Fujistsu Lifebook P1630 is not an option and neither is the HP NC4400.

Does anyone else know who does these trackpoints with their laptops?

Many thanks.
:dance: Don't worry... be happy :dance:

    Thinkpads have them, or certainly did have, dell lattitudes may have them, the D630 does for sure...

    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that

    Hi there,

    As cit_k mentions, Lenovo Thinkpads use the 'nipple' as well as having a touchpad. Why not take a look at this model, it doesnt have a webcam but you can customise the laptop before purchase and add one for about £10 extra. You can also upgrade some of the other components e.g. RAM if you dont like the base spec.

    Hope this helps! :)
