    I've got the Connexion 3D Spacenavigator and whilst I've waxed on about it here in the past I NEVER use it in Photoshop, and simply can't use it in Illustrator, which is hella annoying.

    If you only do 2D work, you do NOT need this.

    If, however, you do any 3D work - any at all, get one.

    They're fucking brilliant.

    As for the mouse - I went off Logitech and Microsoft mice a few years ago - they're great, don't get me wrong.... but I sometimes play games too, and the range from Razer are really really good.

    A mouse that's good for games is a mouse that's good for design work, too. Aside from the comfort, high tracking and build quality, it also has 4 programmable buttons which, although I only use intermittently in PS or Illy, I do sometimes find useful.

    Razer mice are gaudy as fuck though - I do get a little embarrased when clients or non-geeks come by..
