Best 3D mouse for Maya

Why use a 3D mouse with Maya?

Animators and modellers in Maya tumble, track and dolly the camera constantly, usually by holding Alt and dragging with different mouse buttons. A SpaceMouse does all three in one smooth motion with your other hand, so you keep working instead of juggling keys.

It works with Maya through 3Dconnexion's free 3DxWare software.
