   To make a long story short, can somebody recommend a replacement
   mouse?  I'd prefer an optical one so I don't have to deal with the
   cleaning part (aside from a shine on the pad), but anything will do.

See my followup in comp.sys.amiga.hardware.  (*HINT*)

DOn't throw your mouse out yet.smae thing happened to me.  There are three 
wheels that contact the "Ball" in the mouse, on is just for pressure against 
the x and y readers.  It was sticking.  A little DW-40 (a very little) did the 
trick nicely.  (PS, a lot of noise comingin , hop e you can read this ). -jim-
