    I have an aquaintance here in San Diego who owns a small development company
    and he is currently working with a model of a track-ball for IBM, Mac, etc.
    He started about two weeks ago making the "mods" to allow it to work with
    Amiga's also.

    This track-mouse has four buttons - two on each side of the top half of
    the case, the lower one being about twice the size of the upper one.
    The buttons are switch selectable to be momentary or latching and their
    functions can be swaped side for side to allow  left handed use. I have
    been promised a demo from the first run to beta test them for him. I will
    report further when I actually receive mine. Price was, I believe, to be
    greater than $125.
