Trackballs, Mice, Pointing Device

I am a trackball user and I have been looking for something to replace my old wireless Logitech Trackball Pro. It's good but failing slowly.

I just ordered up a Kensington Expert Mouse Pro, another wireless trackball and I'm pleased I found it. They seem to be rare.

A bunch o' buttons, I am pleased, been looking for a while.

Anyhoo, what do you use. Mouse. trackball, controller and how do you line up your 5+1 in your regular setup?

I like the M570, because I like the thumb trackball rather than middle finger placement.

Mouse, and personalise the skills to for ex: Tab, E, some mouse buttons for easiest acces. People playing on a controler often think they wil have major advantage. Id like to see it.

I tried a trackball once, but its like driving a manual your whole life and then have to drive a automatic all of a sudden, this times 20.

I grew to love using a logitech G13 gamepad after trying it based on an old healer blog. The original post is still up, though not sure how much people will get out of it for here. But basically, the G13 is a small keypad with a thumb joystick. I set up teh thumb joystick to control movement and the keypad is pretty similar to a basic number pad. Beyond just liking it, I used it with my left hand, so takes some stress off of button smashing with my right. I'll try it out with ESO and see if I like it. Otherwise, I use a simpler razer mouse with an extra side button. Nice shape and comfy.

Google resto druid nostromo guide if you care to see the old guide. Nostromo is just another keypad, a little smaller than the logitech.

I could use both till I put my bike in the ditch and broke my thumb, it's never been the same since. Still good for mashing he left button though. ;)

Mouse - a Razer Naga. The thumb buttons are amazing in basically any game.
