Dan, Thanks for that. I had a wheeled mouse and the wheel just naturally attracted his fingers and nothing worked because he was constantly playing with the wheel. The wheel is rather hard to resist. ;-) John W.

It's a Fellowes Mini Web Pro - very small and light. I also has a wheel between the two buttons which could be a 'wall' between the two buttons for your son. This is not wireless, but has a USB connection. It also has a Back button, a Forward button, and the wheel is a button, all of which can be set up to do whatever.

Eats batteries (AAA) way to fast to be useful even with the nimh batteries. John W.
