Good mice without a wheel are impossible to find these days - no matter what your resources.
We need good quality 3 button mice for TAAATS (The Advanced Australian Air Traffic System). The middle button is a generic "cancel" function so it is used by the air traffic controllers very often. We've had to implement wheel-mice because it was impossible to find a suitable, non-wheel replacement. The controllers (who have been clocked at 60+ clicks per minute) hate them, as the middle "wheel buttons" are terrible.
Look at what the rest of the corporate world uses for large scale storage management. It is still ruled by Tape drives.
I don't know how much an eye goes for at the moment, but if you can spring for a Super DLT drive you'll get up 320GB (Compressed) for each tape.
It all comes down to the Quality:Cost:Time triangle.
And the last box of these available in Australia is sitting on my shelf...
