    I'm using a wired mouse with no ball under it. That was important for me : no ball.
    You are right about the wire getting in your way, but I'm used to a classic mouse. There was a time I hated the mouse, because they don't use it on mainframe terminals, but now I like it very much.

    No it´s not always safe, that´s why I refuse to use a wireless keyboard and mouse. The only wireless PC gear I will probably buy in the future are wireless USB speakers. But who knows it might even be possible to "tap" them also. But I might be overly paranoid. :D
