Abstract
An input device includes a sensor and a housing. The sensor is adapted to provide cursor control on a display based on relative movement between the sensor and a reference surface. The housing at least partially contains the sensor and is adapted to be selectively manipulable relative to the reference surface into a first position to cause operation of the sensor at a first precision level and into a second position to cause operation of the sensor at a second precision level different from the first precision level.
