Two finger scrolling works with all programs but gestures to go back or forward through pages only work in IE metro version. You can swipe to fingers side to side on the trackpad or can do it with only one on the screen. For the scrolling, it's just two fingers side by side, they can be spread apart or together. The trackpad detects them either way. Then just move them up or down together. The MacBook trackpads are amazing but I wouldn't expect that in a touch or type cover lol Maybe the type cover 3 will have an awesome trackpad?
