Advertise with Googlier.comHJ Blog > Of Mice, er, Trackballs, and Men I used to always switch every so often when I was a full-time mouser, but for a while I had a right-handed trackball (the oh-so-great, but asymmetric Cordless Trackman Wheel, which is wireless) and forgot about it for a long time. My only complaint with this model is that it has a cord. A cord! Bah. And, actually, they could have put a bit more effort into the substitute wheel mechanism (the up/down scroll buttons are never as quick as I want them to be, no do they do any acceleration). Ahem. So this trackball could be better, and I'm sure there are better ones to get, but the day I bought this I was impatient and it's plenty good enough for now. Still, much better than mice, ergonomically speaking. (I'm surprised so many people use mice and I'm surprised people put up with Qwerty keyboards. Topics for another day.)
(I just wish PowerBooks still had trackballs instead of trackpads. The march of progress...)]]>
