Mike:
I think you're out of luck. I have a GlidePoint connected to my desktop at
home, which I disconnected and hooked up to the TP750CE when I brought it home.
Apparently, the only way to set up the tap-clicking is to install Glidepoint's
drivers, which (in all likelihood) clobber the Trackpoint. Since the TP
actually is used in our office for training, I didn't mess around with
installing the GlidePoint drivers.
Of course, I'd be ecstatic to see if anyone else knows otherwise!
