I have 3 and I know at least one of them was purchased new in the last year.  I will look through my collection (that is scattered and disorganized at the moment between two houses) and see if I can find the disk for you.  Might not be until after the weekend.

I've never used the driver with my wizard mice.. Ok, if you really whip it across the table, the Amiga will move the pointer incorrectly, but in normal use you'll probably never notice..

The wizards are precise enough that you can move it in a calm fashion and still have fast cursor movement.

There is no driver for Wizard since it doesn't need any.

I've never looked what Wizard's disk contains, but I'd guess it just have some pd software for using middle mouse button for different task. You can get similar programs from Aminet or maybe exactly same programs too. I used MCP to make use of middle mouse button and combinations of mmb & other buttons. Some programs like some MUI classes use mmb without any external stuff too. For example you can scroll web pages with mmb pressed with IBrowse.

pVC is correct.  IIRC, it came with a mmb utility for WB2.0.
