Are there any alternatives to trackballs for use as a mouse? I noticed motorfish had a cool little nobby thing but I couldn't find anyone more info on it?
Thanks
Oh and very off topic, anyone remember the name of an old nes game where your a ninja in a jungle surrounded by tons of trees and I belive the screen scales up the higher you go? I told you it was off topic....

The Headway doess look pretty fun to try out...once mabey.
At first I read the description quickly and thought it said you could use it for a trackball. Imagine playing Capcom Bowling and getting whiplash from snapping your head back and forth! ;D
But just think of all the havok that piece of equipment would cause during regular use. Everytime you look down at the keyboard to type, you drop a file in the taskbar tray! LOL
Pretty useless ! :-X

I didn't even read the description, i just saw it and thought it would be a great idea for flying/star wars/cockpit games - you see a mig or tie fighter closing in, glance at it and *poof*- no more tie fighter..:-)
