I currently use a Kensington Expert Mouse. I've been using Kensington trackballs since my Macintosh days, in the early, early 90s.
If I use a mouse, I get stuck when I get to the edge of the mousepad ... it's so Dilbertian ....

I didn't know about the hyperspeed scroll wheel. Now if they could put something like that on a trackball, I'd be sold. I've found that mice involve much more forearm motion than a trackball. Granted that mice are more precise than trackballs, but *usually* my duties as a tech writer do not hinge upon precise mouse clicks.
