A friend of mine got one about a year ago, and he loves it. Having tried it out, I can say it takes some getting used to.

Given the types of motions involved, I can't say if it will improve the RSI problem at all, but I can say that most of the benefits of a good trackball device can be achieved with a quality optical mouse (such as the Logitech Optical Mouse).

Having tried an optical, I'll never go back - no more cleaning mouse balls, or cursing the sticky cursor when DeathMatching.
