I generally agree, but I still found it useful simply for up/down scrolling while reading an ebook or news articles while on the couch. Basically when I don't need to use the keyboard at all for an extended period of time.

I can hold the laptop differently in that case, using it more like a tablet. I did this often enough where I was happy I got a touchscreen...
