Two Months


When I got the wireless trackball for Christmas and I was reading reviews about wireless devices online (not necessarily about my model) a lot of people were saying that you were constantly changing batteries in them. Well… I’m not sure what some people’s definition of “constantly” is, but I have gotten two full months of use from the cheap battery that came with the unit. And this isn’t intermittent use either… this is pretty much non-stop use for two months. That being said, the battery is starting to go - according to the nice little warning that popped up when I plugged the trackball in at work this morning. That’s ok… I’ll just use a nickle-metal hydride (NiMH) rechargable battery to replace it and I should be good to go.

On a somewhat related note, does anyone know if any company makes a Bluetooth trackball? I have looked and I can’t seem to find one.
