Looking for wireless trackball with small USB receiver for laptop

I am looking for a wireless trackball that I can use with my laptop
that can be carried easily on trips. I like the Logitech line and
have one for my desktop, but it is wired. I seem to see that all the
Logitech models have large receivers, is that true? I don't want to
sacrifice performance and comfort, so I would rather sacrifice
portability, but I don't want the large receiver with the wire that I
have seen with the Logitech.

Bluetooth - if your laptop has it - would be the best choice (no external
receiver needed.)

Of course - I don't *think* Logitech has chosen that path yet.

Why ask HERE? What trackball you want is purely a matter of personal
taste and has NOTHING to do with the OS.

Ask elsewhere
