    Most usb mice should work. They're usually clarly labelled if they will. Right button is CTRL+Click.

    Theres an app aout there called USB Overdive,

    It works for os 9 that allows you to use loadsa mouse features for all mouse buttons (i got a 5 button mouse that it owrks great with) to give you extra functionality e.g extra buttons allows you to open a browser or app :D totally programmable and works for joysticks as well)

    not free but nice - if the OS wont allow right click (os x does i think on all mice... or is that mouses's? )

    5 button intellimouse explorer here - dead handy for exposé, genuinely speeds up work loads.
