Summary: High maintenance!
Review: This trackball worked great for about the 1st 6 months. Of course, I had to clean it at least once a week because the mechanisms that operate the trackball get extremely gummed up and any hair or fibers will get wrapped around the small rollers inside. I loved this trackball because I am a left handed mouser & I have very small hands, this trackball allowed me to be on my computer for hours with minimal discomfort. But after 6 months the bliss ended with a trackball that wouldn't track. I sent it back to kensington & they repaired it & sent it back to me. Meanwhile I went out & bought another just like it while my old one was being repaired. I thought it was just a defective unit. but after about 6 months the new trackball stopped tracking too.
So I wouldn't buy this product unless you don't mind shipping it out to repaired every 6 months for 3 years & then buying a new one (because Kensington only warranties this product for 3 years).It's shame because out of the box it's the best trackball I've used. I'm now using an Logitech Marble Mouse. I experience more discomfort in my wrist with this one but I've had this one for over 2 years now & it still works great. Kensington needs to come out with an optical version of this trackball
