I've never tried a vertical mouse. I quite like conventional mice but I really hate scratch pads on laptops given that you are for ever having to ratchet them to cover large areas. That said, I'm very happy with IBM track points. These offer the full screen movement without ratcheting and for me represent the same comparison with scratch pads as reverse Polish calculators do over four function ones. A difference of chalk and cheese in favour of RP and track point.
I will admit that not all track points are equally good. A lot depends on the background software. I did try an HP one and found it to be very poor. Also, you need the option of Ultra Nav to get the best performance from IBM/Lenovo.
