For years now I have a TrackMan Wheel by Logitech, but it&#x27;s starting to slowly dissolve after years of continuous use.<p>Unfortunately, they don&#x27;t make that one any more - only its successor which is wireless for some inexplicable reason (you don&#x27;t move a trackball around - why do you care about wires?).<p>As such I&#x27;m on the lookout for a replacement. I&#x27;ve tried the old Apple Trackpad, but it doesn&#x27;t feel as comfortable as the trackball - likely because it has a way too steep angle for me - also it is in need of constant battery replacement which just doesn&#x27;t make sense for a stationary object on the table.<p>Maybe the new trackpad is a solution for this: The angle looks less steep and it can presumably be used in wired mode or at least it doesn&#x27;t need new batteries as it comes with a rechargeable one.<p>I&#x27;m used to Force Touch from a 15&quot; retina macbook pro and I like it very much on that machine, so that&#x27;s probably ok.<p>Really looking forward to trying this one out :-)
