According to Apple's docs, 10.3.9 has fixes for the intermittent trackpad problem with some new Powerbooks:
"Addresses slow vertical tracking and intermittent trackpad behavior on PowerBook G4 12-inch 1.5GHz, 15-inch 1.67/1.5GHz, and 17-inch 1.67GHz computers"
Also, this...
"If your PowerBook G4 sometimes wakes up with a kernel panic, installing this update may help."

YES! The vertical tracking is back to normal, like it was with my TI!
If only the spacebar was a bit more sensitive this would be the perfect laptop!

There might have to be two versions, if the hardware is that much different.

There is reason to believe I'll have positive news on this front in just a few weeks
