and judging by the size of his thumb in that pic, i dont think it would be that hard to reach. And you wouldnt really be using the right buttons if you use the trackball. think about it for menus using it to move around a cursor, the 2 buttons on either side of it, left and right click like a mouse. and normally you dont use a trackball with your thumb anyway. so its not going to make a huge difference, you hold it with your left hand, use your fingers on your right hand to move it around.

im sorry, but thiere is DEFINENTLY something more there then a slight indentation. im not saying its def a track ball, but it IS rounded in that picture. with a clear gap around the outter edge.

[edit] it could also very well be a button, didnt some article somewhere say the controller will feature a button to go directly onto xbox live? a button is a good pissibility, but its definently more then an indent in that pic.
