Has anyone found a clip-on usb mouse (trackball or pointer stick like on a ThinkPad laptop) that can attach to the side of my Netbook Pro? I find that clicking on hyperlinks with the stylus then going back to the keyboard is a little inefficient for me when surfing the web while relaxing on the sofa where I can't use a desktop mouse.

thanks for any suggestions.

I can think of two off hand. Both are trackballs. One sticks to the side of a laptop and the other is held in the hand. You might be able to find them at local shops or thru web stores but here are links thru ebay so you can see what I'm talking about. (I don't know the sellers, so I'm not endorsing them). There are a couple companies that make stick-on trackballs (They can be a little hard to find though).

edit:
here is another one:

You may need to use a P/S2 to USB adapter
