Logitech Cordless Optical TrackMan

It's discontinued and seels for up to $200 on eBay. I was lucky enough to find one on Kijiji (canadian Craigslist) for 25$.

I got used to it in no time, and it's just as accurate as a regular mouse. I've been using it for a month, and I can't tell whether I prefer this to a regular mouse yet.

A thousand times yes. I love the trackMan. On one now. Just like the Microsoft Explorer before it (which are now $500 if you can find one) it's damn nearly the perfect trackball.
