Sorry did that from memory, it was the M90
I was thinking of.  It makes no sense that it
doesn't come with a track point where the other
"business" models do.   The Latitude D5x0s
also do not have track points.

Most of the banks I've worked for are rigid about
standard config choices.  We were able to successfully
lobby for a "developer's config" that included the
highest res screen and maxed out memory.

I'd give up waiting for a 17" with a track point and
finally buy a T6x today if it came with WUXGA (1920 x 1200)
resolution.
