Shake Hands with the Zero Tension Mouse

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the mousing-with-a-pile-of-goo dept.

ThinSkin writes "Given its shape and ability to cup your hand, the Zero Tension Mouse can be moved around without bending the wrist or moving the fingers, while also keeping the hand in a vertical position and the arm in a more ergonomic neutral position. ExtremeTech reviews the Zero Tension Mouse and, although acknowledging it as 'funny looking,' concludes that it amounts to a whole lot of worth for those who need it, or those who want to take preventative measures against RSI and related ailments."

    ... It's called a Logitech TrackMan Marble FX. Keeps the pressure on the outer side of your hand and away from the carpal tunnel. I bought three for ~$50 each back in the day. Last I checked, the were going on eBay for ~$100. Too bad they're discontinued.

    What he's claiming is simply that they shouldn't claim that they don't cause RSI unless they can back it up. Truth in advertising.

    This is something very different from banning products.
