I noticed this http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=88
and is pretty tempted to grab one
Anyone have experience with this? Does it work well, or are there quirks ?

They work like a charm mate! I have grabbed two of these 2 years ago and they never failed me. Mouse wheel works also nicely. It's a little expensive but imo it's the best adapter there is.
Good to know there are now on stock :)

Have two, need two more. Work perfectly with all my mouseses.

I may just spring for that then. I really never enjoyed any of the commodore mice all that much.

Why, you are intending to hook mice to four Amigas at the same time?:confused:

Four Amigas, four mouses needed. Although, I would rather go Deneb with a USB mouse for my 3000 and 4000, then relegate the Cocolinos to the 1200 and 2000. Neither will happen any time soon, I fear.

They are so insanely expensive considering you can make your own for under £5
I wonder why they are so expensive.

Fools and their money are easily parted :)
As you say Alexh, make your own ... it's easy!

make your own? how do you make your own as i would love to do that.

Wasnt there some kind of bug using Cocolino that the mouse wouldn't work if "hot swapped" while the computer is on?
And I would also love to know how to make a ps2 adapter.

Because for $30 more, someone builds it, tests it, boxes it, ships it to me, and warrants it. I do not have the free time for all of that. Until I do, I am not opposed to $35 a pop.
I hardly call that foolish. It is worth what people will pay for it.

some one buy one and reverse engineer one and post the pictures here, I would do it but I am not that reverse engineer savioy, but I would think it should not be hard.

Because you're a hardware guy where soldering is 2nd nature. I suppose you could simplify it by buying one of those old DB9 serial mice and hacking the inside so it outputs DB9 Amiga compatible signals.
I avoided the soldering and PS/2 protocol by doing the logic in software.
