Randy, Andy and anyone else: Button Hole Trackball !
shmokes:
This would also be handy just as a pointing device. For example, a steering wheel panel would benefit greatly from a pointer device because most of the best racing games on not in Mame, but rather stand-alone windows programs like Need For Speed or Colin McRae. But the menus in those games usually require a mouse or keyboard. Something like the device described in the OP would be perfect for this.

Why ? ???
Randy, as a savvy and eagle-eyed competitor, I hope you took a copy of this post before Andy removed it. ;)
Ginsu Victim:
Why, that would be stealing....and from Andy, no less! ;D
Kangum:
all im interested is that someone creates a 1-1/2" diameter trackball that doesnt cost 200.00 usd (happ).
the button trackball suggestion would work i suppose. but as above id prefere a 1 1/2 at a more realistic selling cost.

Whats realistic to you?
We have some people happy that spinners are the quality they are for the low prices they cost, and we have others who complain that spinners cost too much.
I'm not interested in this product at all... it doesn't replicate any game controls I can think of. I like 2.25" and 3" trackballs. If I'm going to go through all the hassle of replicating the arcade experience - I'm not going to skimp on the controls.
I don't need one to navigate windows.
Is there some other reason to use something like this that I'm not aware of?
