Happs 1-1/2 " Trackball

SeaMonkey:
This is a pretty small trackball.
In spite of it being a Happs I have never seen anyone talk about it. Does anyone have any experience with this unit.
It could be a blessing with that small foot-print.

The sales pitch goes:

Provides a big ball feel in a small package
Combination of precision stainless steel components high-grade injection molded plastics and superior optical encoders to create a high quality compact trackball
Trackball orientation settings can be changed with the flip of a dipswitch
Button & USB harness sold separately
Optional translucent backlit ball option
Optional mounting kit available

But without a review, I don't want to spend the cash.

Even in the BYOAC book, the most I can find is a single throw-away line that they exist.
mozzer:
Price seems pretty high....
SeaMonkey:
I agree, very pricey. However with my original metal CP, this is the only one that would fit on there. If it had a good review, It would be worth the price to not have to open the case up and attach a mouse all the time.


The exploded view shows a footprint of 2.5 inches.

I could replace the original ball with a miniature 8 ball or a 40mm tiger eye sphere. and have a snazzy piece to boot.

I can't believe that everything I have my eye on, I am the first person to want one. LOL

SeaMonkey:
Okay then....has anyone even used one?

It looks like it is made for the mame community as it comes with PC connections.
I can't believe they would keep offering this if nobody has purchased one.
javeryh:
$185?  They are insane.  I bet people have bought it ... but not many...
