Thats strange, I thought I was the only one. I mean, something as simple as a mouse pad...can't be that hard to manufacture good ones :) Hmm...the entrepreneur in me wants to go into selling mouse pads now, lol.

switch to a laser mouse...don't have to worry about cleaning your mouse ball, and most times it's more precise. best of all, it works on most anything except solid color surfaces(like glossy white paper or something like that)

Get an optical mouse. You never have to clean the lint and other buildup of crap out of em. The resolution is better... i.e. it is more precise. They work on anything with a texture.

If you are still using a ball mouse, maybe that is the problem. The ball and wheels are dirty.. go get a q-tip and rubbing alcohol... go to town...
