kensington track ball mouse
Advantages: just so easy to uise Disadvantages: take a litle getting used to
I have been using a track ball mouse for a number of years now i think it must be at least five.Find it very easy to use for working on my projects hobby restoration of old photos.
For this type of work you need a good deal of control if you are to make a decent job restoring the photos, using photoshop i blow my image up to very large size then work at 1 or 2 pixels to get the effect that i am looking for with out the control of this track ball ... ...i know there are pen pads around i have one but cannot get on with it.
Doing my other computer work is so easy just a little bit of finger movement will put the mouse where i need it.
i also play games with it not the all singing danceing games that need a control pad of there own but the games that came with the laptop, again great for getting around the screen
I have had no reason to contact the manufacturere, there is hardly any need to read ...

Inuendo central for the cordless Logitech Trackman Wheel mouse!
Advantages: wireless, accurate, comfortable, and durable Disadvantages: doesnt like super super fine work, gets tacky quite quickly
Balls are back! and there is far less hand gymnastics required with this excellent mouse without a tail! I bought this device about 3 months ago and will never look back! it has served me well and will continue to serve me well for the foreseeable future... when i first recieved this mouse, it was packaged well and came with a nice user friendly set up, drivers and sofware... it did take me a few hours to get used to not moving my hand all about ... ...as to why the cursor wasnt moving when i moved the mouse! but it didnt take long to get used to it at all, and is a lot easier to use than the standard arm flailing of a regular mouse! as you can see from the picture, the mouse wheel is manipulated by the thumb, which is a brilliant idea, and one of those things that should have been invented first! although it does lack left handed capabilities for obvious reasons, but its that easy to use that ...

Absolutely brilliant mouse, wouldn't be without it
Advantages: Great for RSI prevention at the wrist, very easy to use and lots of features Disadvantages: Can be difficult to get the hang of initially (be patient!), uses batteries
I have used this mouse pretty much since they came out - having been a physiotherapist myself I am all too aware of the risk of RSI, and I use computers an awful lot (I now work in IT, so 9 hours a day at work and at least 3-6+ hours at home) and have this mouse both at work and at home.
The mouse itself does not move, it sits on your desk (therefore no need for wearing a hole in the desk or using a mousemat) and "talks" to your computer via a rounded ... ...in line of sight, I have mine sitting behind my keyboard and on top of my montior at work and home respectively and never have any problems with signal strength.
Be aware that it will take you a week or so to get used to using this mouse, particularly if you've never used a trackball before. Major advantage is other people won't be as likely to use your machine unless they too like/use trackballs!!!!!
I certainly would never go back to using a ...

Excellent ball, the rest is awful
Advantages: Size, ergonomics Disadvantages: Price, drivers, compatibility, customer support, noisy
While the actual trackball is an excellent piece of equipement (big, ergonomic, plenty of buttons), everything else is quite wrong when you buy it. The price is probably double what it should be, and for that money you get a very lousy customer support: no answers, or automated answers that don\'t pertain to the problem. Another problem is that the drivers are poorly designed and have plenty of conflicts with dotnet applications, like random crashes, ...

Logitech Trackball
Advantages: Ergonomic, easy to use, reduces strain on wrist Disadvantages: Only suitable for right-handed, no extra buttons
I originally got the logitech trackman wheel to relieve the pain in my wrist (from using a mouse too often) as the only part that needs moving is the thumb. I've got to say it really helped. It is much more relaxing to use than a standard mouse - the trackball is actually very smooth. It did take a couple of days to get used to and get a feel for it but in the end it was definitely worth it.
Regarding accuracy, I wouldn't use it to play FPS but ...
