That sounds even cooler than u720.

I'd call it the PAC Rat :D since it is also considered a mouse device and it can fit into tight places.

I'm really interested in this trackball. Im curious what the actual dimensions are. Im building a portable panel and Im hoping its a little less tall than the standard Happ trackballs.

Can't wait for it to come on the market. As for a name what about I-ball or I track.
Cheese, the building blocks of life!

This thread seems to be going on rather longer than planned...!

Thanks for all the support and name suggestions.

I will announce the winning name when the trackball is launched and available for sale. Production is now taking place of the first batch. I would expect launch to be early April.

Pricing will be announced nearer the time.

Andy

Hi Andy,
What are the dimensions of the base unit please? Also, maybe a silly question but never owned a trackball before -presumably it has to be installed in a certain direction?
My kitchen cab is progressing here

So, what is the name of this thing?

It's called the New Trackball from Ultimarc - nobody wins...

I think I should win - my name has a nice ring to it: The Trac Ball Sack!
