I have exactly that on a reccently acquired T540p.

I am finding it very difficult to get used that new design.

I am still using my T60 and it has a small trackapd with actual L+R  
buttons below the pad *and* an extra set of buttons above it. The keyboard  
operates smooth as butter.

The T540p has chicklet keys.  I do not like those very much at all.

It is a shame that engineers mess around with something that works so well  
for the sake of appearances.
