Big old balls always creeped me out:P on a serious not, I think you can add a scroll wheel and extra buttons. I believe that it's the same/very similar PCB to the super spiffy trackball by CST

I think it's opto-mechanical, though (and not laser). Please correct me if I'm wrong: so I can order one. :)

Nah, I'll save up, and eventually buy a laser one. Thanks for the information, though.

So how does it compare to DT225? I am thinking about getting LTrack as my DT225 barely copes with 2560x1600 screen but I'm not sure if the form factor will work for me. In this regard DT225 is just perfect, big with 4 buttons and perfect layout.
