When I started using NetBSD on my B&W G3 a couple years ago, I went out
and found a 3-button USB mouse at CompUSA. It's a "Logitech USB-PS/2 Mouse"
also labeled "WingMan Gaming Mouse" on its grey exterior, came with an 
adapter if you wanted to use it via PS/2, and is entirely mechanical. 
But it works just fine.
