Reviews of the Kensington SlimBlade Trackball - trackball

CNET Review
The Good: Comfortable for those physically unable to use a standard mouse; heads-up display conveniently shows the current mode.
The Bad: Toggling between three modes complicates work flow; expensive; lacks Bluetooth; can't customize buttons or alter trackball sensitivity; large footprint.
The Bottom Line: Kensington resurrects a dying breed with the SlimBlade Trackball, but the potential of its unique shortcut buttons devolves into a mess of clumsy extra functions and awkward movements that restrict productivity.
