The end of the presentation had an image of a possible solution - basically having the touch pad exist right below the keyboard, just like it is on any laptop built today. Definitely makes the keyboard/touchpad area quite a bit larger though.

If you imagine the touch pad being wide but not much taller than the one on a laptop, it starts to seem more practical.
