Apple’s patch notes:

This update addresses an issue where the trackpad may not respond consistently to user input, and is recommended for all MacBook Pro with Retina display notebooks.

The updater will install in the Applications/Utilities folder and will launch automatically. Follow the instructions to complete the process.

Your computer’s power cord must be connected and plugged into a working power source when running the update.

Apple announced MacBook Pro with Retina Display on Monday during Tim Cook’s World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) keynote presentation. The device begins the transition of Apple’s pro laptop line to a MacBook Air-like form factor, but more importantly it brings a Retina Display to a 15-inch laptop for the first time.

The MacBook Pro with Retina Display has a resolution of 2880 x 1800, or 220 pixels per inch.

MacBook Pro (Retina) Trackpad Update 1.0 is a 1.26MB download from Apple’s Downloads site.
