Speed control on multiple pointers

Hello everyone,
Is there a good way to control the speed on multiple pointer devices?
I have both a mouse and a trackpoint keyboard, and they have very
different scales for speed. My TrackPoint settings make my mouse way
too fast.
I'm currently using /dev/input/mice with Linux 2.6. I suspect I
probably need to break out the configuration into two pointers.
However, I don't see any options to xset that would let me configure
them indepenedently.
I could probably put a hack together with gpm that scaled the stuff
correctly, but hey, if I can do it all in X, seems simpler. Thanks
for any suggestions!
