ultimarc now carrying trackballs

[Spawn859]

is it just me or did they just start carrying these....

cheap at 26.00... does anyone have/are using one of these?

Wish they would have carried these before I got a used wico ball off ebay. That is a darn good deal even with the shipping cost from overseas.

previous thread on the topic

if you are in the US you can get it for the same price from wico direct... *shrug*  FWIW (but all the cool people buy from andy, so...)

i still got my wico ball off ebay for a low $10 so i still got a good deal. I love people who sell stuff on ebay without cleaning it off.

Yes, these are available from www.wicothesource.com for $24.99.

Yes our trackballs are exactly the same as the Wico (they are made by Suzo) except that we supply a cable for connection to the Opti-PAC.
People in the USA have been able to buy this trackball much cheaper than in Europe for a while, so Europe is where I would expect most sales of these to come from.
Ironically these trackballs are made in Europe...

does anyone know which mounting plate is used for these?

i know happs has a 2 1/4 tb plate. i haven't seen any others.

 does this tb even need it?

just curious, i'm getting ready to get a couple of these for some projects i have on tap and would like to know if i need to figure in a tb mounting plate into the control panel.

thanks
