Almost Perfect
Much better than a mouse on my lap, I've used a track ball, but there are very few that are USB (and most of them are cheap and don't last very long). Button placement takes sometime to get used to. I hit the top-left button rather than bottom-left a lot, but you get used to it after a while. I like this unit.

Great Product needs one fix
I'm an editor and I've been using Kensington Trackballs for ages. The large trackball enables you to effortlessly zoom around the screen and programmable keys help speed up your workflow. I especially like to have a return or enter key located on a button. My one complaint is that for some reason you can only program one keystroke for each button and chord. Older versions of TrackBallWorks used to allow you to program a string of characters per button but that function has been removed for some reason. What's up with that Kensington?

effortless, precise navigation
No more running the mouse to the edge of the pad and having to recenter and reselect. Extremely smooth and precise.

Tops for Ease, Comfort and Precision
I'm at the computer 12 hours/day and I find a trackball much better than a mouse for my hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder. My Logitech Trackball developed floating cursor and I couldn't cure it. I looked at lots of recommendations from friends and relatives, but no one mentioned the Kensington SlimBlade Trackball. I found it on my own, and it is perfect for me. The large ball makes for easy cursor precision. Its simple clean design is very appealin... Show More

Nice Hardware Needs Better Software
I bought this product to replace a very old (but very reliable) Kensington Expert Pro Trackball. I am a graphic designer with a neurological condition that causes tremors in my hands, so I needed a large ball and buttons. I have no problems with the hardware here, but the software was sadly lacking in giving me the speed, acceleration, drag and right-click control I needed for my graphic apps. It was necessary to install additional software to co... Show More
