Hi, Qyite simple really. I touch on the left hand side of the trackpad to get to the source list, and interact with it. I can then look at what I have in there and select whatever I want. I then stop interacting and touch on the right hand trackpad to get either to the HTML area or the contact list. I often mix and match with using the keyboard, but the trackpad is so often the quickest way to jump around complex screens. The only thing is that to do this you must have trackpad commander switched on, in which case, most if not all of the new multi-touch gestures in Lion don't work, not that I've missed any of them yet.
