It didn't take me long to learn. The one problem I've had is that the
hardware is not that reliable. Perhaps I use it harder than others, but
it's broken twice on me so far. I'm trying to be more careful this time.
Also, I use it on Linux and I make some quick bindings to change the speed
of the cursor via the keyboard. This has proved to be incredibly useful.
Hope this addressed your question.
