Dear Fond Andu,
Will the Kensington Turbo Mouse....which I have and love...work through
the iMate ADB to USB converter made by Griffin Technologies? I have an
orbit running now and believe the iMate converts the signals
electronically from ADB to USB since the chip and motherboard are clearly
visible as well as a pulsing LED when ever information is transferred.
Thanks,
Dave
