You can often obtain the same effect using a touchpad. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_wheel says:
... touchpads are often made with the edges acting to scroll the page (rather than to move the pointer), partly making up for the lack of a scroll wheel. On laptops with multitouch capability, scrolling is usually achieved by touching and dragging two fingers on the touchpad at the same time. Many Linux distributions offer a third method of scrolling using the touchpad, where the user will first activate scroll-mode by pressing in a corner of the pad, and than dragging in a circle around the center of the pad, letting go of the touchpad will switch back to the default mouse-mode.
