Well,
There a track ball device from Logitech where you seem to use your thumb to
navigate. There is also, I don't know from who, a large track ball where you can
navigate with you entire hand. So far, I'm considering in investing in a pen tablet.

| I used the Logitech mouse until they introduced their first trackball; I

| Cliff,
|
| I find that the Trackman Marble, which lifts the ball and allows the thumb
| to fall naturally to the switch with the index and forefinger rolling the
| ball at a somewhat vertical angle, completely eliminates the CTS associated
| with horizontal trackball movements. And it eliminates the tension in the
| right shoulder as well. A lot depends on how much of cast he has though.
| Have to be able to move you fingers, at least. :o)
