It's a different design, and there is a little plastic bumper in it that can get dislodged making the button flakey. When I first got the machine I couldn't reliably drag items because the button would let go mid drag and drop a file into whatever folder it was over at the time. The tech replaced the top plate (Yay Applecare). In a later repair of the sound card, the bumper in the button came loose and I had the same problem. The tech found it loose and reset it, and all is well.
