I'd like to put the original style of trackpoint cap onto my T510 keyboard. I've seen it called "classic dome" or "eraser head" but I can't find a source for it. They seem to have all but vanished, I can't even seem to find them on ebay. I personally like being able to grip the edge of the cap with my finger tip, which doesn't work with the flat top caps (and I never liked the tiny nubs sticking up on them).
Anyone have a reliable source? Searching a little further on google I found a couple companies that I have never heard of before claiming to sell them, though none that list on ebay or amazon.

Are you referring to the ones that feel like they can rip the skin off your fingers?
