Multiple mice (touchpad/bluetooth/etc)

On my laptop, I have 2 mouse devices - one is the built in touchpad 
(synaptics), and one is a bluetooth mouse.  My touchpad has two buttons, 
and my bluetooth mouse has many (9 I think).  For my bluetooth mouse to 
work, I need to have a line like this in my .xinitrc:

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13"

Of course, that makes my second button on my touchpad be button three, 
which I don't want.

Is there any way to enable 3 button emulation on the touchpad, but not 
on a usb mouse (the bluetooth one), and enable the button swapping on 
the bluetooth one, but not on the touchpad?
