Congrats, booyah, on your find. Someone asked me to post when I finally decided on a mouse. I got a Microsoft Intellimouse V4.0A (wired:USB). I like it so far but I am having trouble deciding whether to use 2 or 3 fingers on top.
3 seems to get a little cramped but with 2, I end up having the fingers over the primary button and the scroll wheel and it's an annoying stretch to the right side of the mouse. I usually end up with two on top and scrolling with the right edge of the wheel. Thank goodness it's a cool rubber scroller and grips well with very little pressure. Any input? :) I don't really use the side-scrolling features nor the left-side buttons.
