Pity.. One thing I've found is that when I'm doing something mouse intensive (ie mozilla) with my trackpoint and I leave my finger touching the trackpoint of my toshiba, it is much more likley to happen than if I'm doing something like typing or staring at the screen or washing the dishes :). It seems that the constant pressure of your finger there makes it think it is out of calibration.
