Toshiba Laptop Touchpad Problem

When I started using my Toshiba laptop, it was very frustrating because a tiny little box with tiny little arrows would randomly pop up when ever I was using the touch pad.  After a lot of frustration not getting the touchpad to work right,  I figured out that the problem was not a bug, it was actually a feature. 

When you use the touchpad near the edge of the pad, a small rectangular box will pop up and the touch pad will turn into a scroll wheel.  That is what it is on my trackball anyway. This is actually a really great feature once you learn how to use it. Now I use this all the time, and it is really handy. It does make me wonder what other features am I currently being frustrated by that could be very handy?
