  touchpad
       
           (Or "trackpad") A stationary pointing device used
          mainly on laptop computers.  Touchpads provide a small, flat
          surface that you slide your finger over using the same
          movements as you would a mouse.  They were originally
          developed to provide a more natural and intuitive connection
          for the computer user than the mouse.
       
          Touchpads use a principle called coupling capacitance, and
          requires a conductive pointer such as a finger.  They
          contain a two-layer grid of electrodes which are connected
          to an integrated circuit (IC) mounted under the pad.  The
          upper layer contains vertical electrode strips while the lower
          layer is composed of horizontal electrode strips.  Capacitance
          from each of the horizontal electrodes to each of the vertical
          electrodes is measured by the IC.  A finger near the
          intersection of two electrodes modifies the capacitance
          between them, since a finger has very different dielectric
          properties than air.  The position of the finger is precisely
          determined based on these changes at various locations.
       
          According to one correspondent, you can use any part of your
          body, which is not surprising, but not a McDonalds Chicken
          McCrispy.  You can use reheated Pizza Hut Christmas Pizza
          though.
