Microsoft representatives will demonstrate the IntelliMouse TrackBall and the Natural Keyboard Elite, the latter an extension of an existing product, at the behemoth trade show, running from November 17 to November 21.

The TrackBall features an IntelliMouse navigation wheel with an index-finger-operated design for ease of use in cursor control and Web browsing. The TrackBall is a new product, although the IntelliMouse is an established item. The product has an estimated retail price of $84.95.
