It's a Logitech with about 8 programmable buttons. I did not want to
change any of the traditional buttons tho I used the wheel click for
double click. Yes, it
is a pity some useful more complex operations cannot be programmed but
perhaps a good thing given my manual dexterity or lack of it :-) I don't
have the teenage ability to do texting underneath my desk.
