Spire Archer I Ergonomic Mouse Could Solve Carpal Tunnel
The new Spire Archer I ergonomic mouse has a rather interesting design that claims to reduce health issues caused by long term computer use.
Many health issues such as carpal tunnel syndrome are becoming more common in the workforce. Spire believes traditional mice do not provide the comfort and support needed for long hours at the desk. The Archer I ergonomic mouse hopes to solve this problem, featuring a unique vertical design that claims to reduce stress along the wrists, arms and elbows.
The Archer I is one of the most unusual looking device we've ever seen; it might be exactly what users who suffer from these issues need. The mouse offers a comfortable position for your palm, and the design also prevents your fingers from hovering over the clickers. The Archer I is equipped with a traditional mouse wheel, optical sensor, palm rest and can be connected via USB 2.0/3.0 ports.
It has a 2 year warranty and an MSRP of $19.99.
And MSFT stopped making their best ergo mouse (Laser Mouse 6000). I'll likely get me one of these and if I like it, several more.
I ended up with the ridiculously overpriced yes exceedingly simple 3M Ergonomic mouse: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Ergonomic-Optical-Compatible-EM500GPS/dp/B000F2BP7U
Add X-Mouse Button Control software to make the scroll click functional in most applications, and it's about as ergonomic as you can get these days.
