I'd guess that depends on how good you are with two hands on the keyboard.

You can fly with the mouse or the keypad with most of the rest of the keyboard
mapped for a zillion and one functions.

I use the Gravis MouseStick with Falcon.  It works well and it doesn't shift 
around on the table when you're flying one-handed. 

My only gripe with the Gravis is that I wish they'd bring out a 3 button mouse
to plug into the MouseStick's microprocessor.
