Pros
Pro Trackball
Using a stationary mouse will keep wrist and arm movement down. The trackball being operated by the thumb makes for great comfort (do not recommend finger based track balls).
A trackball doesn't require a large flat surface, though next to the keyboard still tends to be most comfortable.
Pro Wireless
With 18 months of wireless power, it can be used in a variety of manners not handicapped by a wire.
Pro Easy to get used to
Unlike other, more non-traditional, ergonomic mice, it does not take long to adjust to this one.
Pro Meant for larger hands
Medium to larger hands will work for this mouse, avoid if you have small hands.
Pro Good tracking
Except for some surfaces, this mouse has good accuracy.
Pro Comfortable and easy to use
Unlike standard mouse designs, this model's buttons, wheel, and palm rest upward to the right. It has the effect of rolling your wrist up off your desk and it feels less stressful on my wrist.
Cons
Con Low build quality
The shell is very cheap, thin plastic and the button sensors are either far too easy to trigger (left/right click) or ridiculously hard (back/forward, middle button/wheel).
Con Really awkward with the left hand.
Doesn't really go both ways
Con Not recharchable
The Natural Wireless 6000 takes two included AA batteries instead of being able to recharge.
Con No left handed version
Con Odd placement of thumb buttons
They are position in a way that requires moving either main finger or thumb.
