The Boing! mouse pad is just that, a mouse pad. It just sits there. About the same size as a regular pad. The mouse plugs into the mouse port, exactly like the regular mouse. (I think it has a slightly longer cord than the normal Amiga mouse, but I'm not sure). Mouse buttons (3 button) have a good feel, with a 'click'. Very professionally constructed. Re sensitivity…. I have my mouse prefs set to about medium, and I get about 2.5 screens worth of movement across the pad (just tested it). The *major* benefit of the Boing! (IMHO) is that it is 'instant stop/start', since there is no rollerball friction to deal with. I love the precision of drawing with it, for instance. TTFN –jp–seattle–
