I've read that the best solution is to have more than one type of pointing device and to switch around fairly frequently to avoid fatigue.

I Logitech "Marble Mouse" trackball. I miss the scroll wheel on my mouse, though. Sometimes my thumb gets stiff after a long day.

I also have a Megamouse pad strapped to my chair arm..this has made the biggest difference in eliminating mouse use pain for me. My elbow and wrist used to get sore from extending my arm and resting all my weight on my wrist.
