VIM + touchpad beneath space bar on a standard laptop works well too. I can left\right click with my left thumb and move the cursor with my right thumb without my primary digits leaving the home keys.

(b) to cross the screen from one corner to another on a touch pad you have to make several strokes, whereas with a track point you don't have to leave the device a single time
