not to be rude, but the brand reads on the device :D

anyhoo, going by the name & browsing their website: https://www.kensington.com/p/products/electronic-control-solutions/trackball-products/expert-mouse-wired-trackball3-1/

I appreciate you tracking down that trackball.

It's tracking trackball treasure

@Malix @rutrum
yup. I've been using one of these for years. It cured my right wrist pain.

Ah, the Lily58. I use one too, with Vilebloom keycaps.

I started with it after getting intermittent wrist and knuckle pain. Switching to the split ergo form factor eliminated it entirely, and the Lily turned rapidly into my very favourite board.
