Smoother Computing Experience with Kensington SlimBlade Trackball
We've seen our share of computer mice, but this is one of our favorite new ones -- the SlimBlade TrackBall by Kensington which they demonstrated at CES . Not only does it look stunningly modern on your desk, but once you get used it, it's speedy and comfortable. Just choose a navigation mode to control cursor and scrolling, for instance, "media mode" controls volume, play/pause, stop, and track forward/backward, while "view" mode zooms in/out, and pans. Multi-function ball lets you easily navigate through music, pictures and documents using media or "document view" mode. Mac & PC compatible, including Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Mac OS X. Not cheap at $129 but worth it if you spend your life with a mouse. Available at Kensington.
