This! I love having a 3D mouse whenever I am doing design work. I first had one as an intern at my last company, which I continued to use the whole time I was there (about 3 years. They are that solid.) It was the first thing I asked for when I found out I would be doing some design work at AndyMark, and now we have a couple of them in house. The Space Navigator will do almost everything that an FIRSTŪ Robotics Competition student or mentor would need and is around $90. It's a bit pricey, but totally worth it once you get the hang of it. I couldn't imagine doing CAD/CAM work without one now.
