Basic viewport navigation is the very first thing you learn if you start to use 3d or CAD applications and it is no problem at all. I've seen this whole Spacemouse/-ball/-orb thing in various demonstrations, but none of the guys who presented the stuff was able to use it as precisely as I can do using only keyboard and mouse. Plus you've got to learn the whole navigation anew and in a different way for every software you use. Well, I’m a 3d professional and this thing is completely useless.

Pretty cool, though, and useful if you're into that CAD sort of thing. Which I'm not. So I'll use the money for Christmas presents. :) Ouch!
