Yes, it's ok for browsing but it's just not as precise, slowed me down when I needed to do real work. I'm back to the mouse.

That's what I have (Usb model).

Been using it for years and love it!

Eh?

That's likely because you didn't get allow yourself to become acclimated to it. Few things are more precise than being able to keep the rest of your hand perfectly still while only moving your thumb.

I have my mouse speed dialed all the way up and have precise control when editing images.

Plus it's ergonomically correct. Have a Microsoft ergonomic keyboard to round up my setup. Both are connected to a kvm switch for easy keystroke swapping between PC's with multiple monitors to boot.

I've only had it a few days but notice I am getting much more accurate with it quickly and my wrist is hurting/uncomfortable much less... so huge win for me!

I haven't done much photo editing with it but plenty of spreadsheet work and fucking around.

Your thumb will never be able to track things as well as moving your hand. Also, with those types of controllers, you can accidentally move the cursor with involuntary thumb movements when you click on something. They suck.

I already get pain in that fat muscle under my thumb - I don't think I would get on with one of those.

It would be nice to find an alternative though.

False.

I can use my thumb-based trackball better than a regular mouse.

Moving your entire hand (and by extension your arm) is not as stable as keeping four fingers, your hand and your arm stationary and moving just your thumb.

For you perhaps...

The accuracy of use and resulting learning curve is a matter of preference, as someone mentioned earlier.

And as for involuntary thumb movements? Simply take your thumb off the ball.

(it's just as comfortable)

I used it for a couple months.. hand is still but movement of the thumb is quite restricted.

When using a regular mouse you can easily move in all direction, with thumb alone the simple joints make it difficult for example when pulling towards your hand. but as you said, it's a matter of personal preference...

Used to use the old M$ fingertip trackballs when I would play fps games and kicked some ass with them.
