It's the "Marble Mouse", which is actually a trackball. It has 2 large and 2 small buttons, and if you click both large ones at the same time, it counts as a 3rd button. I used to be able to configure any of them to different clicks or keystrokes, but the generic MS driver doesn't handle that.

Essentially, both the Z-Board and Logitech drivers used to detect the startup of a game and alter the function of the device a bit to make it work better for the game. Blizzard somehow disabled the ability for WoW's startup to be detected. Z-Board put out drivers to make their keyboard always function in game mode, making it less useful out of game, and for many Logitech users, we have to lose special mouse functions in order to get the mouse to work in the game properly by installing very basic function drivers.

If you don't use mousemove you likely wouldn't notice, but I always do. The only time I move using the keyboard is when I am running a long way and mousing over things as I go.
