Just another observation - when my palm of the right hand touches the touchpad while using the touchpad, the touchpad behavior seems normal; also, when I place my left palm on the area to the left of the touchpad, the behavior seems also normal. However, as soon as I move my left hand away from the touchpad area, and I lift my right palm from the laptop, with only my finger(s) touching the touchpad, the behavior becomes erratic again.
So in a nutshell: It works when at least one palm touches the metal of the area to the left or right of the touchpad; it does not work when only a finger (or two) touches the touchpad itself.
