The box say "precision and comfort at your fingertips" boy that is an understatement. It is heaven for you wrist, fingers you whole hand. I have been thinking about buying a new mouse my old one had the ball on the bottom always had to clean or shake it sometime to make it move right. There were really no fun features with my old one.
TrackMan Mrble FX is awesome! It is shaped like you hand the comfort is nothing I ever felt before. The one I have there are three buttons on the left side the usual main left button like any mouse. The other two you can program them to do what you want. For example you can make one of your options: you click on an item move you mouse and click again and it will move the item there no need to hold the button in while moving. You can set anyone of the "F" keys. May it easier to copy, cut and paste with one click. How about one button scrolling through a web page make is so much easier. There are so many functions that you can choose from and the help index that comes with the application is very easy to understand.
The marble is center off to the right some what can be used with just one finger. The feel of the marble is very smooth, it is about the size of a super ball so it fits just right. The button on the right is just the normal button you have on any mouse.
The mouse sits flat with a slight incline at the finger for the ball and there is and extension that comes out for you writs to rest on. Throw away those mouse pads you won't need them with this mouse. The whole mouse is very slick and tiny enough it does not take up all that much room.
It was weird to get use to at first. I think it took me a few hours to adjust to not moving around and to the added functions of the other buttons. But this is one adjustment I don't mind making.
If you are in the market for a new mouse I would suggest checking this one out or one similar to it. It is worth the invest especially if you surf a lot.
I believe I paid 50 for it after tax.
