magic trackpad "quirks"

overall-good, but it does have a few little quirks of its own which I can't quite figure out. I'm using it with a Mac Pro 3,1 with Snow Leopard, and when browsing, it'll go back a few pages on its own, or it'll highlight the text without me really clicking on it, like it's trying to read my mind and predict what I'm gonna do, but not makin' it. Still, not a bad use of $40. maybe I should remember to wash my hands after eating? Hmmm.....

have you fiddled around with the trackpad preference pane?

i find the trackpad to work better under Lion. The OS is more tailored to it's interface.
