Reasons to buy

    Laser technology provides highly accurate and responsive cursor tracking and scrolling, plus the large 55mm ball makes it quicker and easier to navigate anywhere on the screen
  • TrackballWorks™ Software
    Allows you to truly customize your productivity experience by letting you adjust the cursor and scrolling speeds, as well as the functions for the four buttons including media player controls
  • Plug & Play Installation
    Simply plug in the USB cable to your device and you’ll be up and running quickly as the drivers will download automatically, plus there’s no need for batteries

The left and right click buttons are actually the two large areas behind the ball. With the Windows or...
