Input: I dislike mice as input devices, so whenever possible I've used a trackball. My favourite for years was the Logitech Marble Mouse. It was much more precise (you use your fingers instead of your arm/wrist), it doesn't accidentally jigger the cursor when you let go of it, it doesn't run out or real estate (even on your knee), it doesn't need a special mouse pad, etc. The only thing I missed was a scroll wheel (I don't like thumb-based trackballs).<br /><br />Last year I bought a MacBook Pro and it had a trackpad like all laptops nowadays. I usually give new trackpads a try for a couple of days before I get disappointed and run back screaming to my trusty trackball. I must have used close to two dozen trackpads over the years and all were lacking or unusable, but this one, wow, this one was something else!<br /><br />When I saw that you can get an external trackpad that is even larger than the built-in MBP trackpad, I was so there!<br /><br />The Magic Trackpad is basically like an iPad touch surface for your computer. It has all the trackball advantages I listed above, plus many things you can't do with either a trackball or a mouse. For instance:<br />- try rolling instead of swiping your finger for even more precision<br />- you can scroll freely in all directions, not just vertically and in notched steps like a scroll wheel<br />- it has gestures that are actually helpful!<br /><br />Using this trackpad has increased my productivity. Some of that is probably part of OS X. For instance, I haven't used scrollbars since I started using a Mac. I also like to use multiple desktops, so changing between them with a simple gesture is just awesome.<br /><br />If you are not happy with your mousing performance, or are ready to step up your game from a trackball, get the Magic Trackpad and be happier!

Better than trackballs
