Thanks for that. At that price, I ordered one, even though I am not a huge fan of them. Maybe it will grown on me, but in any case, it will be handy to have in case a visiting engineer wants it

Glad you got it. Clicking on the link now shows still out of stock but with a price of $71.91. There must be something weird going on at B&H.

Ouch. This wasn't even put out on their email lists. I could always use a spare pointing device.

I use its little brother:

Is it worth an upgrade?

Could you go into details as to why?
I do not need the additional buttons. Has it a better feel to it?
