Suggestion on what type of mouse to get...

mice to use with web design and a little graphics/flash work. I'm not an extensive designer (as probably obvious by this thread), but I was interested in a mouse that is

a) precise and relatively comfortable feel
b) none trouble some (i.e. no cleaning required)
c) relatively decent price (<$100)

thanks for any suggestions you can give me. I was thinking about that Wacom Graphire2 , its a little on the high-side of pricing for me right now; however, that would be a one time purchase and I probably wouldn't have to worry about replacing it a year later.

I just wanted to say that I have a Graphire 2 and I love it. I really don't notice a difference between it and the higher end tablets, and it's really handy to have the mouse included (rather than having a separate mouse & tablet and having to find room for both on your desk!)

thanks for the input, I had a gut feeling that I'd end up going w/ the Graphire2. even at 80bucks for the tablet and the mouse, its still a pretty great deal.

This is great, no cleaning required: http://www.logitech.com/cf/products/productoverview.cfm/2820

You can also get the cordless version, but it requires new batteries about every two months.

I would get an optical Logitech or Microsoft.

My cousin is very satisfied with his Wacom Intuos. He paid around $300. He originally bought a 4x5, but a few years ago he upgraded to (I think) a 6x9.
