I read somewhere that the new Air has new trackpad gestures like MB & MBP.

For those of us not buying the "totally new trackpad design" line, can someone who is technically inclined please find and post the 2.0 MBA trackpad files.

It is at least worth a shot... Thanks!

It may just be a driver change. Anyone here want to share? :D

This has been posted on here before - you can get the Four Finger Swipe if you modify the version of 10.5.5 that comes with the Unibody MacBooks.

Just installing the new driver/prefpane seems not to work (as also pointed out in the above thread). I can also vouch for the method in the thread above. I now have 4-finger-swipe on my Air V1. :D

Thanks for the link. Poster Michaelb did not respond to questions/problems that other users encountered doing the hack.
