My Sober Alt: I don't understand that Logitech mouse, but I did get a new Logitech trackball a couple of months ago.  They used to last much longer it seems.  It's the only mouse I can use after 30 years or so of them.

Ravage: My rooted Barnes & Noble Nook SimpleTouch w/ glowlight is starting to show it's age. I recently had to replace the battery as it would not hold a charge. The soft rubber casing is degrading and becoming sticky.  The page turn buttons have fingernail cuts in them.
All that said, I have used it a lot and really like it.
The Onyx Boox Leaf 2 in that list looks interesting as a possible replacement.

I feel like there was some issues with the rubber used in consumer electronics about a decade ago, because I have some devices of that vintage like a Microsoft Arc Mouse from around 2013 that just feel disgusting because the rubber has gotten all sticky. I didn't even use the mouse that much, and it seems like it got disgusting just sitting in a drawer.

Around 2011 I bought this Bluetooth speaker and it had this slightly rubbery coating on it. It was a thin layer, sort of dry, almost powdery to the touch, and slightly soft. After I moved last year I found it again and it was sticky and covered in dust and grit. I cleaned it off, and it never stopped being sticky ever again. It feels like it's covered in dried soda or or something. I've tried everything I can think to make it stop being like that, and nothing has worked.
