I have been using a spacepilot for a couple of years, but only on 32bit. I use it mostly for modelling and in the same way Byron is describing. I sometimes use the bottons and the lcd screen, and is very good when you learn new shortcuts and customize xsi and the spacepilot with different profiles, the lcd screnn then serves like a reminder how you have mapped that profile and that is very useful. But still mainly use the ordinary keyboard for shortcuts and the spacepilot for dynamic camera moves.

I bought the $60 Space Navigator at SIGGRAPH. I was using it on my
64bit Windows version at work and now on Foundation at my new job. I
like it a lot, especially for modeling. It's much easier to get the
camera around to see what you want when you can do dynamic camera
moves. (orbiting and dollying at the same time) The Navigator is
heavier than the Traveler and the weight helps. I can't attest to the
other models but I think the one I have is definitely worth it's
price.
