Have a brand (new to me) Pismo, first OS X laptop.
On my desktops I use my Kensington trackballs that have a button set to control-click, but I am NOT going to lug around a mouse to use with my new laptop.
Under OS X there used to be a utility called FinderPop, which among a number of other things, set the contextual menu to pop up when you held the mouse button down qithout moving it for a time.
FinderPop was never updated for OS X; does anyone know of anything that does this for OS X?
(I don't need contextual navigations of my hard drive, the internet and have a dock/desktop/Finder replacement app, I just want the <bleep> context menu to pop up.
Suggestions?

Bruce:
I recommend FruitMenu <http://www.unsanity.com/> which has a "Click and Hold Mouse to Access Contextual Menu in FInder" feature. But of course this only applies to the Finder.
Personally, I carry around a small two button scroll wheel optical mouse with me anyway and I use USB Overdrive to program my buttons (scroll wheel is a button too). I have done this during the four years I used my Pismo and continue with my new PBG4 1.5GHz.
