Does anyone here have any experience of using a wireless keyboard with trackball built in with Linux?
E.g. something like:-

Hi,
I've got a Logitech DiNovo Edge wireless keyboard, which has a touch pad instead of a ball, but it works perfectly with Linux. Battery life seems very good as well, I can't remember the last time I charged it up! :-)
It is a Bluetooth keyboard, but the dongle it comes with presents it to the PC as a standard HID device.
HTH
