Product Description: Save desk space and gain comfort with the TrackMan trackball. Rotate the trackball with just one finger. The innovative rounded sloping design places the buttons under your fingers - two on top and a handy side thumb button. Since it's a trackball, TrackMan stays put, and you get efficient cursor motion without any large arm movements on your part.
Amazon.com Product Description: Reliable optical technology combined with an innovative scroll wheel that acts as a third button sets Logitech's 904353-0403 Trackman Wheel Optical apart from ordinary trackball mice. Patented optical technology provides superior precision, reduced wear, and smooth motion, and eliminates the need for regular cleaning. The scroll wheel provides easy scrolling and the added convenience of an extra mouse button, enabling you to jump easily to your favorite Web sites. The ball is ideally positioned for thumb operation, and the comfortable shape of the mouse allows for strain-free extended use. Its smaller size also saves desk space, reduces hand and wrist movement, and plugs very easily into your system's USB or PS/2 port. Compatible with both Windows and Macintosh systems.

It doesn't take any time at all to get accustomed to using this instead of the "mouse". It's so much easier and user friendly to move around using your thumb than having to constantly lift the mouse up, set it down and move it. I didn't have to load the CD to get basic function; just unplug your mouse and plug this in its place. To me, this is such a superior invention over the mouse that I don't understand why there's any market for the mouse. This was some of the best money I've spent on computer-related gear.

My wrist absolutely loves me for switching from a traditional mouse to a Logitech Trackman. I switched almost a decade ago to reduce wrist strain; it did the job. I just ordered from Amazon my 7th Trackman.
Each one of my previously owned Trackballs had the same fate...the button stopped working. I feel that with a better quality button or a different buttn design, the device(s) would last much, much longer.

Perfect in every way. I've used trackballs for years - never looked back to the old mouse. It takes a couple of weeks getting used to, and then you'll be so glad you switched. This one, with ergonomic design, scroll wheel, single-click, double-click (or customizable to something else), and right click is perfect.

I've been using track ball devices for several years and this product fills my needs nicely. I can do everything a conventional mouse does without chasing the mouse all over my desk. This was a refurbished device and works like an new one. Great product.
Rating: - Will never own anything else! :)
I absolutely love this mouse! I was introduced to it at work when they decided to go ergonomically correct and just had to buy one for home. I will never go back to those mice you have to drag around! :) It's probably not good for left-handed individuals (though I've been told they make a left-handed version) but excellent for us righties. It's nice to not have to worry about the extra room on your desk and getting it to move just right (especially with limited desk space). This is definately a 5-star product!
