My problem ended up being that the top of my wrist ended up aching horribly after using the Trackman Marble for more than a little while. I really blame this and many of my other mouse problems on my long fingers (I'm kinda tall and thin) so my hands just don't sit right on most mice. I used the Trackman Marble daily for a few months before I realized that the my wrist ache was just getting worse. Since I switched, I've had no problems. I spent 7 hours playing Diablo a few weeks ago with the mouse I have now and didn't experience any discomfort. Oh well, find what works for you and stay with it :). -Sean
