I just bought a trackball but it has intolerable sticktion.
Trackball gang is a lie!
Have you tried cleaning it? If that doesn't fix it then that sucks, I have a gameball and it's smooth as ice.
Yeah sure. Elecom Deft, I got mislead by a review. After getting it I searched some more, and apparently the ball is too soft and the point bearing can be replaced to be zirconium instead of ruby. But I suspect I'm just more sensitive to sticktion. From what I've read there are "ball transfer unit" that completely eliminate sticktion. They are a bit louder and not quite as smooth, but afaik there is no trackball using it.
So my guess is that people that use trackballs simply don't really experience discomfort, and probably don't really feel pain either :D So back to the mouse pit with me!
I think Elecoms are prone to sticktion. I have an Elecom Huge and I had to replace the bearings to make it smoother. None of my other trackballs have that much sticktion, my Kensington Slimblade in particular is buttery smooth.
