Hi Guys...

I have a quick recommendation to ask you!

My trusty old (almost 12 years old) Microsoft Trackball Explorer

Is finally giving up on me! :( the Scroll goes nuts and sometimes the middle button (again the scroll wheel) doesn't respond!

I use it with AutoCAD and Inventor and I find it easier too use than a Mouse at times! (plus it stops anyone else using my workstation as it scares them! :D )

Anyhew... I'm now in need of a replacement, and I want summut that has similar functionality: Finger control of the ball not Thumb, 4 programmable buttons plus ScrollWheel (5th Button) fits nice and comfotably in/under my hand!.

I've looked on ebay and the like, and yes you can buy referbed Explorers, but they are upward of $200...

Which comes to my main sticking point!... I don't want to spend a fortune! I'm looking at £80/100 MAX! (I've prices a Mouse/Space Mouse Combo and that comes to about £120 which is prohibitive! :( )

Thanks in Advance!
Sim :)
