@vaartis That's how I feel about Kensington. They're the only ones making a wired trackball with a scrollwheel, but my first one of those lasted only two years. :blobfoxgooglycry:

@tk in the past 8 years i went through 3 logitech trackballs and 2 logitech mice and they all develop the same issues after a few years. either the scroll wheel starts going the other way, or the buttons start double clicking

@vaartis The Logitech Trackman Marble has been a mainstay for me for years, but I ended up eventually needing the scroll wheel.

The Trackman is probably so good because it hasn't been significantly changed in forever. :blobfoxgoogly:

@vaartis Oh yeah, they must’ve just discontinued it. I see this Amazon listing for $169??? :blobfoxconfused:

They used to be around $50 according to my purchase history.

@tk @vaartis I've been using the kensington orbit for almost 10 years, and every day it surprises me that it still works even though it feels like a flimsy piece of shit. in the same period of time I've been through countless logitech ergo trackballs that I take places with me, usually the middle click stops working because I use it a lot.

@vaartis @slowfallinward The Kensington Orbit is a similar style and it's not my favorite, but it does work. :geblobcatshrug:
