@bitinerant,i was able to return mine for a full refund.  i advise you
to do the same.  my theory is that due to the architecture of the vostro
v13 and latitude 13, it will be a ***very*** long time, if ever that any
linux distro will support it.  the synaptics touchpad is a child of a
broadcom usb hub (part of bluetooth as far as i can tell) and broadcom
is notoriously closed-source.  too bad, as the vostro v13 is a very nice
machine, but designed specifically according to the wintel paradigm.

i've lost all faith in dell as a result of their overt lack of interest
in supporting ubuntu and their horrible technical support.  canonical is
also fooling themselves with their sham of a certified hardware testing
and certification program, and quite simply ignoring their own prime
directive, bug #1.

best of luck,
cheers
