Being one of those that commented on it (I wonder which finger I
am...), I've got one thing to say... hurry up already! .

I swiched to the kensington trackball about 6 years ago (Expert
Mouse V 4.0 - two button; the 5.0, 4 button has been out for a while).
I still get a kick out of watching people sit down in front of it for

at home, and one I had to buy for myself at work.
