Title: Kensington Expert Mouse for something cool
Post by: czarek on Sun, 07 August 2011, 14:13:37
Hi there I no longer need my KEM - I'm really happy with CH DT225 trackballs. I'd like to swap it for something else - different trackball (even another DT 225 in any version) or some keyboard - cherry reds maybe? Please let me know if you're interested. Trackball is in decent condition. There is no palm rest (i've never used it and lost it in time) and the primary button has a little darker dot (normal wear i guess). The ball itself was always taken care of - after i've got a dent on the first one i had i really paid attention not to scratch or dent this one and it's indeed super smooth like new. I'll make some pics tomorrow.

I don't have much use for it as all of my keyboards have numpads but thanks for the offer :)

I love it. Although mine feels scratchy sometimes - not sure maybe I should clean bearings and lube them with a dry lube?
At first I was wondering if low DPI would be a problem but I've edited acceleration curve in Controller Mate and apparently it feels just as fast as KEM. I've also added software scroll - when I press button 1 and 2 (chording) the it switches into scroll mode and whole big ball becomes fast and accurate 2D scroller - I like it way more than MX Revolution's (the last mouse I had) flywheel.

You probably already traded it by now, but I would definitely be interested in trading a different trackball or a keyboard for the DT-225.  PM me.

Lol, too lazy to read the date on post  :))

That user is probably a skeleton by now.

The only place I can find the DT-225 for sale is digi-key and they want 300$ a pop.
