Sounds like a hardware failure, specifically the trackball assembly. On the Tour, trackballs were re-designed to be lower profile. These new ones were prone to failure. I swapped out three of them on my Tour in one year.

Cheap replacement parts are available at CNN.CN (ships out of Hong Kong). I know Sprint stores were giving new trackballs away so maybe Verizon is too.
