Re: Needed --- Recommendation on Trackball !

by pg <penang@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 23, 2008 at 05:25 AM

I used to use a Kensington trackball for many years, the one with big
ball. I agree with you, it's a good trackball.

Unfortunately, Kensington doesn't make trackballs with big ball
anymore.

What they are making now are those "cute-cute" stylish trackballs.
While those might be okay for the able-body people, disabled people
with hands shaking uncontrollably just can't use those "cute"
trackballs.

Thanks for replying !!
