Use an optical mouse. It will work on most surfaces, eg your leg, the arm
of a chair, your friends leg etc.
The minor inconvenience of having to carry a mouse in your laptop bag and
plug it into your usb port is far outweighed by the frustration and pain of
trying to use a laptop touchpad to do 3D.
