It's totally intuitive, and becomes second nature in under 3 minutes.

They nailed it.

Other gestures are coming over from the iPod touch, like pinch and stretch on the newest models.

As much as I am a devout rodent pilot, the touchpad is fucking smoking.

BTW; they were nice enough to even write Win drivers for it in Bootcamp.

Nope, I wasn't aware of that. My level of support for Macs generally stops at basic network connectivity. That sounds far more like a technology that would be useful on tablets than a tiny touchpad though.
