Re: trackball vs mouse
Its multiselection, default is basically alt-tab, the buttons are forward and back in a browser at default too. I also have the MX Revolution and its fucking awesome.
Re: trackball vs mouse
I prefer the classic trackballs they put in laptops. And, of course, the tracknubs.
Anyway... my mouse.

Re: trackball vs mouse
This one is mine.
Didn't know many buttons on the mouse are trendy now.
Mine has less pencil pockets .
I had one with 1 more button on each side to back and forward but when I started using this one I just added the gesture add on to Firefox.
I don't do anything relayed to GFX and i don't need to have multiple huge windows open so i don't feel discomforted.
Re: trackball vs mouse
My mouse, which I got to replace my MX518 which I hated. Now that I think of it, I've never liked any input device by Logitech, at all. A single button for switching between sensitivity levels is less confusing and I don't have to install shitty Logitech drivers.
Re: trackball vs mouse
because i hate the mouse concept i tryed diferent device for pointing :
when my mouse logitech 15$ was broken i dont buy another during 1 year :
so tested the aiptek my note tablet with pen and that very lower than i hoped before : just better for draw but i prefere paper and scanner10* need to own all this for minimal art ;
i tested some old mouse pen logiteck totally unusable yet but reminding to me the 1987 devices...
i tested 5others trackball including playskool bigest (interesting but lack of accuracy in build ll try to mod it)
the wheel are 10*worstly inaccurat than an equal mouse and the infrared too ,
i need an bluetooth key for test ne new mouse with scroling buton(3rd) is a trackball ....
joystick is so slow but plane simu are related
resume :
trackball is 10worst than equal mouse excepting for the helico / vtol simulator !
test CoD5 scoring 3 to 30 during 2 week and buy a mouse for scoring 12 to 20 but a lot of fun added
why i hate mouse :
need special grab pos that hurt the hand& the arm with long time,
need support for use
but never found more accurate and quick :
so the idea is to add a joystick hand grip on a mouse and some rails
:the result will look same a standard joystick but without rotation remplaced by translation ...
just a resinstick and a box with guides...need to be made by me again ...

defenitely preference though... i have a good friend who has sworn by trackballs for gaming for many years, started using them around the time diablo 2 came out...
inverted Y on the mouse included, whatever you're used to is always going to be the best option.

Re: trackball vs mouse
I just can't see a trackball being great for gaming. TBS games maby, since they are more comfortable on the wrist, but I would eat my hat if there's a trackballer out there who can FPS as good as I can, and I'm really not even all that good.KaiserJ wrote:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3zQtURu ... re=related

Re: trackball vs mouse
show to us your device trackball or your special hand !

it seems modern(infrared) trackball are sided for left or right hand and i try only ambidetre models that are not ergonomics
