I'm using the 31P7405 that matches picture (expect for brand name :-) of (found a few unexpectedly inexpensive on ebay) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lenovo-ThinkPlus-Optical-3-Button-ScrollPoint/dp/B00009VFIV/ before that one I've been using three button mice for years. the middle button of the scrollpoint mouse is much farther away than on the mice I used before, so occasionally I hit the scrollpoint (blue thingy) while clicking the middle button. neverthless, I never expected I would like the scroll point so much. regarding p9p rio - some years ago I tried hacking it to keep transient windows on top of their main windows (by suggestion from Russ) but I messed up the code, my changes were too complex, and it would occasionally break. I thought that I should first read the icccm documents and retry, but of course never got to it. since then I started using osx and acme-sac instead of p9p, so chances are slim I'll return to hacking p9p rio...
