photo of a Thinkpad Trackpoint keyboard II
Anyone on a external Thinkpad Trackpoint keyboard II on Linux has a way of seeing the battery power via Blueetoth ? (The cable now is only for loading...)
Same for Bluetooth headphones...?
Thx

The first two marketable sticks were the #Lexmark force-sensing resistor stick (US5467108A, 1st image) and #IBM #TrackPoint II strain gauge stick (US5489900A, 2nd), implementing it using the sensor techs in their respective names! (Note that both patents were filed after they were released.)

Happy birthday, #TrackPoint! 35 years ago today, #IBM filed the original pointing stick patent (US5521596A), the work of Edwin J. "Ted" Selker and Joseph D. Rutledge. It will then-soon evolve into the staple feature of #ThinkPad! sharktastica.co.uk/topics/keybo...

The original #IBM #TrackPoint design patent turns 35 today! It's not the #ThinkPad "nipple", "nub", etc. you may be expecting, but a mouse for the IBM PS/2 L40 SX laptop that can function as a trackball or a ball mouse depending on what side you use it!

My bluetooth keyboard with a trackpoint fully works with android 🤯
There's even a little mouse pointer with right click operations and hotkeys. This is not using Samsung's Dex either!

New page dropped! I created this as a new sources database for future research and articles, but it doubles as a very nice gallery! Besides keyboards, there are also relevant IBM mainframe, #Selectric, #ThinkPad and #TrackPoint patents as well. sharktastica.co.uk/topics/patents

I worked at #CompUSA for a while selling computers. The #IBM #Thinkpad was always popular (though out of budget) for buyers. The #Trackpoint was controversial (personally I loved them but there were many who didn't). I never sold the 701 with the expanding keyboard however. #1995

@pcworld.com mentioned one of my many conversations with David Hill in a recent article about the #ThinkPad #TrackPoint. It's very cool to see these stories get around. I remain optimistic about the future of the TrackPoint.

@fedora Also, seriously consider getting a #laptop from @frameworkcomputer . There's no #trackpoint unfortunately, but the day will hopefully come when that is an option and many of you ThinkPad users don't use it anyway.
