3DConnexion SpaceNavigator
*a 3d mouse, ideal for 3D designers, CAD engineers, architects*
Either a professional designer/architect/3d artist or a hobbyist, this is the gadget you must have!
It is an excellent device, with an excellent build quality. It sits firmly on the desktop and fits nicely in the hand.
If you are a regular user of any 3d modeling program I definitely recommend investing in a SpaceNavigator - you will experience a much more intuitive, precise and productive way to work with your 3d models.
