There are benefits to having both. On my Thinkpad, I use the Trackpoint to navigate when typing simultaneously. It's much more efficient to not take your hand off the home key and move directly back to controlling the mouse. Whereas, when browsing and all one needs is clicking, then the touchpad becomes convenient. Besides, the trackpoint is far more accurate than a touchpad.

Multitouch Trackpad? Hmm..im thinking of maybe including two nipples, you know, like a girl.
@John Hinds
Trackpoint FTMFW.
I like to play with a nipple while simultaneously caressing the 'touchpad'. It's all about technique.
