I tried several different Toshiba and IBM notebooks. Whereas IBM's trackpoint feels solid, Toshiba's feels wobbly. It seems that Toshiba's needs to move slightly before reacting. I thought maybe I imagined this, so I took off the green rubber cover and then it was completely clear (on the two Toshiba notbooks I checked) that the trackpoint was in fact moving a little before reacting--just like a very limited movement joystick.
