I remember seeing these "all over the place" about a year or two ago. At that
time they were literally being sold off at bargain basement prices (like $9). I
remember thinking I should get one even though I can't stand trackpads, but
then came to my senses and didn't. I have not seen one of these for the Mac
since then. So many vendors discontinued products for the Mac before the iMac
came it out and now (if they resumed support for the Mac) they are all USB
since it is cross platform and Apple has clearly dropped support for ADB (like
the Duos). You'll never see these kinds of ADB products again new. Best bet:
try eBay.
