I have had very good support from 3Dconnexion too, actually with one of the founders.

Comfortable, sturdy, durable, heavy enough to be effectively stationary while in use, quick to get used to (if you haven't used one before)
RE: Best CAD spaceball
I have 2 SpaceControllers that I use at home & at work and I've got the SpaceNavigators from 3D Connexion if travelling.
I prefer the SpaceController because I like the software control which is fiddly but powerful to use.
Comes down to price and personal preference. If asked I say the same every time.

and it is a total piece of junk, it works only when it wants to.
After less than one year of use I need to get something new.
Previously I had good results from these guys, but not this time.

@KKKing, I have that combo and it is all I could ask for, highly recommended! The 3Dconnexion mouse and mouse-pad should not be overlooked, they are very nice and add the finishing touches to a high-end setup. Get em! Beg for em! Steal em! (not recommended) Put them on your Christmas lists!!
Or just tell your IT department you have to have them to model correctly. What they don't know wont hurt em'
