If anyone knows of an optical trackball with a ball/button/wheel setup like my current A4Tech WWT-13
or the classic Microsoft Intellimouse Trackball
or is talented enough to convert/build one I would gladly pay. The rollers that have to be cleaned every other day now on this thing are driving me nuts.

i have the same difficulty, i am rather cramped for space where i use my PC, and can't afford the real estate footprint for a regular mouse, so i use a trackball as well, mine is a Logitech one though. and even though they still make them, the newer ones are ALL wireless, and i really really hate having to keep buying/recharging them, so i prefer wired ones... but they don't make them any more...grrr...
as a consolation, if you go to a PC recycling place, they usually have some in the bargain bins for a few bucks...

Not at all! Yes, things are a bit off. I was aiming at layout and posture, rather than staying on model. The Wapsi toons are pretty much 4 and a half heads high, and I tend to draw about 5 1/2. So -- shorten torso, extend legs, etc. Work to come.
Hey, check out what I found (and had previously missed) on eBay...

Anyway, the footy has already started and I don't like either team, time to go watch and cheer for both to lose

They (Logitech)do still make them wired, and Best Buy is the only place I know that carries them.
Yanno how some people have Angels/Devils for a conscience? I have a Dark Elf ShadowKnight and a Half Elf Ranger for mine. The really bad part is when they agree on something.

Frys {though currently more expensive}; also NewEgg, and TigerDirect, if you despise Best Buy, as some do.
Personally, i might go with Frys, since i have one not TOO far away, and i love to go there just to spend an hour or two browsing...
=====================
Oops - i see you were talking about wired.
I prefer wireless - i don't have to replace my mouse's battery very often, and getting a wire from where i use my mouse to the computer on the other side of the desk can be a pain.
