| Pointing device | Touchpad with On/Off button, two-way scroll, gestures, two pick buttonsPointstick with two additional pointstick buttons |
| Keyboard | The HP spill-resistant keyboard is designed using a thin layer of Mylar film under the keyboard and a drain system that funnels fluid through a hole in the bottom of the notebook. This minimizes the risk of damage to sensitive components underneath. The 101/102-key compatible keyboard features a full-pitch key layout with desktop keyboard features, such as editing keys, both left and right control and alt keys, function keys, and 19.05 x 19.05 mm key pitch (center-to-center spacing). U.S. and International key layouts are available. Other features include hot keys for instant access to power conservation and brightness. |
