Amiga USB Mouse Adaptor

I just ordered one of these. I didn't really need it, but I'd never seen one before so I figured I'd give it a try.

Sadly I live in America, so it'll prolly take 10.3 years to get here.

WOW, that shipped quick!!! I wonder why some things across seas only take a few days, and most take a month or two?

Anyhow, mine came from Ireland as well. Though it DOES NOT plug into the A600 as promised because of it's shape. Secondly, it works with none of my USB Optical Mice.

I also have a 1200 so I could use this with that.

As for using any sort of extender, those, thus far have only served to disable the right mouse button when used in conjunction with this, my only other means to a mouse on Amiga:

I had to use the dremel tool on it to make it fit and work proper on my 600.

Thankx Amiga Kit.

I have a Micromys but it hates my Atari 8-bit, hates my C64, and will only use the Scroll Wheel mode on my 1200, but not my 600, though my 600 just died last night so it no longer matters anyhow. :(


Anyhow I found a mouse that kind of works with this USB adaptor, though Freewheel does not seem to realize there is a wheel there.

I'm going to write the seller, so if he can resolve these issues, then will post back here.
