ATM its essential for me since I take all my notes in class with my N1 and need to be able to go back and fix mistakes.
If I had a choice though I wish they could make it like the iPhone where if you long press on a certain spot in the text it will put the cursor there. Much much easier to use.

Well, after much consideration & typically with me, getting a bit fidgety with everything running smoothly rolleyes, I fancied rooting my phone.
Didn't want to go for the Sense ROM yet (too early and many bugs), so stumped for Cyanogen's latest Vanilla ROM build.
The process was a bit nerve-wracking for a non techie but managed to follow the written and video guides & hey presto, the trackballs glow different colours! I think the only one I can now change is the Messaging colour (haven't yet worked out how to manipulate the other ones.
Phone runs faster as well, plus I have wired tethering to a laptop using the phone.
See the thread at the top of the Nexus One forum if you want to find out any more.
I use it with the camera, I think the on-screen camera button is hard to use. I also use it with editing text as stated in the thread, and lastly I use it for the game "Frozen Bubble" which is a lot like a game I was addicted to on my blackberry "Circle Popper". All these games are similar to the old Bust a Move/Puzzle Bobble if anyone remembers those.
I'm using it for moving back through words as above and also there's an odd bug in ChompSMS, whereby in landscape you don't get the menu option to insert smiley by long pressing on the screen, but you do if you press the trackball!
