3d mouse / Connexion??

I was reading a comment in a post that somebody really liked these, but there wasn't much in the way of a response to it. Does anybody use one of these? Like it? Was reading about the SpaceNavigator which is the lesser expensive of the products. http://www.3dconnexion.com/products/spacenavigator.html It seems like a good idea if it works well like described. Does it really save time?

Thx Greg

I recommend the space navigator. I haven't used the more expensive models, but the Space Navigator does all I need it to. The navigator saves time and aggravation.

If you are going to use SketchUp for several hours each day the more expensive models make sense.

thanks for chiming in. I was beginning to wonder if it was just off the beaten path enough that nobody had tried it or bought into it. it seemed like a worthwhile experiment to me. its also seems normal to stick with the basic set up if its working for you. but I"m glad some have tried it. I think I will.

for me, I end being a bit of a jack of all trades, master of none. My SU time is intermittent, but when on board, I can be doing full time for a week so any help seemed to make sense.

Thanks, GREG
