Yes, VSXXX-AA.B03 is the hockey puck mouse.  Coming to
think about it, I believe that the VS2000 actually uses
model VS10X-EA, which is more squarish, with three metal
rolling balls, two just for better action and a larger
one for actual encoding, I think.  The cable is
unusually long (some 14') and ends up in a DC15 connector,
as opposed to a mini-din for later mice.
