I have the latest MBP and lately I've been experiencing a lot of trouble with the track pad.
It's like I'm drag clicking (when I'm not) and if I open new windows etc it just drags them around the screen (if that makes sense).
The only way to solve this is to log off,
it happens probably every day...
 
Me too. I've noticed that this happens when drag is enabled, and the new Magic Trackpad update is installed. Just double tap or 2 finger secondary click.
 
I've noticed something while trying out an MBP at the Apple store:

If I move the cursor to select the inside of a check box, the cursor will move down and out of the box at the time I go to press down and click. I was able to counteract that by pushing up slightly with my finger as I go to press down on the track pad to make a click. I tried several MBP's and they all did the same thing.

My everyday computer is a PB G4 with a separate click bar and trackpad, so maybe I'm just not used to using an integrated click bar/trackpad. *shrugs*
 
My mouse arrow disappears all the time-that's the only problem with trackpad I have been having.
