	You can try out head tracking devices that don't require a mouse at all.
I have a mac system with a head tracker called a HeadMaster from PRC.  It has
an ultrasound headset that you wear and a mouth tube to blow to click.  I have
had trouble with it as it seems to send constant "mouseup" signals-- I am 
using a Quadra with system 7 and this thing seems to be kind of old.  But its
the right idea.  Let me know if you find something like this.
