I had one without wheel for three-day-testing. I am never going to buy one 
without wheel!!! Its just so much easier for scrolling! And by the way the 
only MS-product I am using regularly is the little mouse at my laptop, where 
the wheel feels so much better than on every other mouse...

Stopping now, as this is no LAD-topic anymore. ;-)
