Kensington ExpertMouse Trackball
_ $99.95 _

I've gone threw a lot of mice, trackballs, tablets, you name it. This trackball is one of the best value trackballs for professional use. It is heavy and slow which is perfect for working with 3D graphics, detailed photo editing, and even using Logic for mixing. Obviously this isn't a trackball for gaming as real FPS gamers are looking for a high resolution weighted gaming mouse. Playing something like World of Warcraft or Eve works just fine with this however.The scroll ring around the trackball itself does feel a bit cheap and plasticky but it's placement is extremely useful for zooming in when working with graphics. It's not necessarily made for people with large hands as mine are small and I do just fine with it. The buttons are oddly spaced out so you do need to reach for the top buttons however this also helps from any accidental clicks which when you're working on a project can really hurt you with an "ooops" click.

I think this was the best mouse I've ever know. Thats because it was Designed for the Mac, the new Expert Mouse employs Kensington's Diamond Eye optical technology for smooth, precise cursor movement. Surrounding the ball, a brand new implementation of the award winning Scroll Ring that puts scrolling right at your fingertips. More comfortable than ever, the Expert Mouse even comes with a soft new wrist rest-right in the box! You get all of these great new features along with the same, large ball, exceptional control, and ease-of-use that has set the industry standard for more than 15 years.
