Ok, this is really for CAD users, but from what i gather about these devices, imagine you are holding the 3d object you are creating in your hand, by twisting this device, it turns on the screen, push down on it, and the object goes down, pull up, the object goes up, tilt your hand forward, the object spins away from you.
The axis control settings are all adjustable through software including the orientation of the controller. I didn't like the default orientation and had to change mine with the SpaceTraveler.

...or a new operating system free of "windows". But that's looking into the future, not at what's available today.

I swear by 3D controllers after using them.
