  There is a trackball out for the Amiga that acts exactly as a mouse,
needs no converting.  I think it is made by Wico, but offhand I don't
guarantee it.  It costs under $50 (I got it as a cheap alternative to
a mouse), has two buttons and works great!
  I prefer it to the mouse because (as mentioned in the original posting)
if you have a crowded desktop, it takes almost no space.  It's also easier
to draw with when using paint packages (for me at least), and I won't even
bother raving about how great it is with MarbleMadness!
