ReHi Juergen: It is possible that I mistook somebody's identity. I see that [discuss] had a lot of participants and it is a very plausible mistake.
Also, my idea was not intended to be directly related to open office or any particular operating system. It is intended as a generic hardware accessory that would be nice to see, but I do not have the capital to even start to develop it. At most, I might make eventually myself a prototype for my own use, unless somebody uses my idea and commercialises it at an acceptable price and with adequate support. The mouse speed can be a nuisance in Windows, prior to XP, in Linux (several distributions) and also in op sys installations. As I said, this is not something that needs to be a physical part of a mouse or trackball, but in a separate box, as a separate product. Mice and trackballs are too small by nature to suit this degree of versatility. A basic electronic project box, such as made by Hammond or Bud Radio would be more suitable and a far simpler manufacturing approach. And now I am off to chase more nuisance parts from the local parts store. BTW Where is Sun located? (I suppose somewhere in the U.S.?)
