Mark sent me the note below. I am pretty sure others are having success
as well. So will look at multi-functional programmable mice for the shack
here.

I use a fairly simple one, with one button (as well as pressing the wheel)
for ESC and the
other extra button for ALT-W (clear callsign in N1MM). I find I've become
so ingrained
with hitting ESC on the keyboard that I don't use it as much as I thought.
With N1MM
and ESM, with right click sends enter, most of the actions are driven from
the mouse so
I don't usually use the keyboard for anything except odd calls that call
parsing did not
decode or of course ESC.
I use a Logitech USB MX518 mouse. I also used a wireless microsoft mouse
but it
was a 27Mhz variety and seemed to get confused sometimes.

Hi Rod and the group,
Rod, if you get any useful answers, I would be interested too!
As part of myshack upgrade to Win7, I found that I needed to get a better
mouse than the old ball-style mouse I had previously.
The new one I have is seemingly for gamers, but works amazingly well, and
has 7 or 8 configurable buttons.
As yet, I have not even contemplated looking at this possibility, although
it had crossed my mind when I bought it.
Could be useful!
