I have gone through several mice and trackballs, finally settling on the 
Logitech optical track ball.  About $100, but well worth it.  It doesn't 
require cleaning very often, and works exceedingly smoothly.  No extra 
desk space required.  I do a lot of graphics and photo retouching, and 
this mouse finally lets me work all day with minimal discomfort.

YMMV
