    I just received my 10" AA1 this week. The only internet I have is a USB 881 Air Card. When I installed it, I lost the track pad. I restored, then tried it again the next day. It did it again. I know I need to go online to download some upgrades, but I can't go online until the trackpad is working. I checked in the control panel and the track pad is enabled. I also did Fn + F7. Does anyone have an idea what I could do? Best Buy seems to think it is an Acer software glitch. Thanks

    can you try an external mouse, then install the air card, get updated drivers for your touchpad and install them?

    That is what I finally did and it worked. Thank you for posting the info even though I had already done it. Someone else will need it I am sure. Thanks for you help.
