Does AutoCAD work with most trackballs. I am looking at getting a trackball with as many buttons as I can find to replace my mouse. I don't have the room for a tablet and think that a trackball with programable buttons would be the next best thing. Any input? What trackballs work best?
I use the Kensington Expert Mouse and a Contour
ShuttlePro. The expert mouse has four buttons that can be
programmed. Also the lower pair and the upper pair of buttons can be
used together for additional programming. I use the contour shuttlepro -
which is actually marketed toward a/v editors - because it has 13 programmable
buttons and a 'jog' wheel that I use with ACAD's dynamic zoom feature (ACAD 2000
or higher only). I have the trackball on the right, and the shuttlepro on
the left of my keyboard.
I will never trade in my Kensington trackball - I use one at work and at
home. I will mention that I have to use a wrist rest to keep my arm
comfortable.

Trackballs are great. Just make sure you get
an optical one. Cleaning rollers is not fun.
I found it much easier and more precise to use a
finger controlled ball, rather than a thumb controlled ball. So go
somewhere where you can test them out.
I prefer the Logitech Trackman Marble FX but its
out of production. The Microsoft Trackball Explorer looks like it's pretty
close though.
