I've got one of them - I bought it at alt.woa. The only minor gripe I have
with it is that sometimes it doesn't work until you unplug the mouse and
plug it back in again. This in most cases is a nuisance, but if you are
trying to get to the early bootup screen, or use a startup-sequence utility
which cuts in if a mouse buttom is pressed, then it can be a bit annoying.
Does anyone else have this problem? or could it be specific to the mouse
I'm using (A4 tech wheel mouse)?
In terms of other adapters, check the adverts - merlancia do one (though I
don't know whether it's exactly the same as EZ-mouse, just rebadged), and
Power do the punchinello, but that one is a 9-pin serial connector, so
you'll need a convertor.

Matthew.
