I purchased the Marble Mouse based on Logitech's reputation for quality. It fit well in my hand and the price was reasonable. After two months of use it developed a mind of its own and became a worthless piece of art for my grandchild to play with. The...

As soon as I opened the box, I was immediately amazed at how comfortably it fit in my hand. Once I configured the Marble Mouse for my computer, I was up and running working on school projects and essays...and the occasional game of Rainbow Six 3...
The ball action is smooth, with just enough resistance so the cursor doesn't jump all over the screen, and the learning curve to learn the different motions of using the trackball was about 10 minutes. I was quickly working through projects, presentations, and blasting terrorists in Rainbow Six 3. I would recommend this device to anyone who needs a new pointing device!
