Rollermouse

My friend Aideen brought an interesting device in to show us the other day. It’s called a Rollermouse, and it’s a combination mouse and wrist-rest:

The black bar rolls up and down and slides left and right to move the mouse, and you can click it too if you prefer that to using the buttons.

Now, this looks (and sounds) a little strange, but it worked amazingly well. I saw it and was skeptical, and tried it and was impressed. They’re rather pricey, but if you suffer from RSI, or just want a mouse you can easily use in bed, this might be the thing…
