The #logitech #m570 trackball mouse is just amazing. Every machine I have is connected to one of these mice. Why drag and flail your arm around a table all day like a savage, when you can just use your thumb to navigate like a boss.

@codeHaiku trackball mice are better than a regular one for sure, but nothing beats a well maintained ThinkPad TrackPoint.

Can't complain about having to move hand from keyboard to mouse if your mouse is in your keyboard.

@codeHaiku yes I
I completely agree. However on one of my trackballs the switch below the mouse wheel starts acting up having opened so many webpages in new tabs with middle clicks.
I guess the replacement of the OMRON switch inside is imminent. I already replaced the left button switch in both my #m570

@chairraver The #omron switch is a pain to switch. Every #logitech mouse I have ever had has issues with this after prolonged use. I just buy a new mouse and move on. The #m570 is only USD 29.99 these days. That is worth it since time spent ordering and replacing the switch seems excessive.

@codeHaiku Luckily I still have some spare ones from the last order. Prices apparently vary between regions. Amazon Germany lists the #m570 for roughly 57€.
