I've cleaned the lint from the trackball rollers, and oh while I was in there, game myself a nice blue color by coloring the light source w/sharpe - nice touch.
The trackball response is better, although I thing that I might of put it in upside down, which is ok bc the down scroll was an issue, now its up scroll.
So it not perfect, not like new - this is what I was expecting.
I did see on ebay replacements, for roller and new ring... 7.95 - not bad
Question, anyone ever replace this part? Is there parts to stay away from, did not if these are genuine rimm parts or aftermarket?
8 bucks is not much to invest in a 2yr old bb to get the trackball action back, but if this is not going to get me back to 'new like" performance - it might be time to renew contract and get 8330 ( replace 8830). I'm trying to hold off to end of year so I can get a newer unit.
Trackball replacement on ebay - thoughts???
