New Keyboard / Mouse? #5121

Check that out. I really want to try one of these out. Not sure how it would be for gaming, but for IT / Productivity work, I think this would be pretty cool. Think how many times a day you move your hand to your mouse, and back to the keyboard, sometimes for short little hops..

If your browsing the web, your probably just using the mouse mostly and not typing much.

If your a heavy word/email user, you probably type more than you click...

But if your an IT worker who has to type passwords in 15k times per day. That short hop your hand makes from the keyboard to the mouse and back again - all - day - long - adds up.

Probably would take a bit of getting used to.. and at a proposed 400.00 - I'm probably not gonna be a first time buyer.. but I sure would like to try it out..

Interesting. I take it you slide the mini-keyboards around to act as mice?

LOL! BTW, I can see these getting the byname "oven mitts", in short order.

My first thought is wrist and elbow strain from moving something that heavy.

Yeah I don't think it would feel too nice. Also, I assume you are supposed to rest your hands on top of the mice while using the keyboard otherwise I can't see you being able to reach the keys. That just seems like it would be too high of a position for your hands.

I used to have this old pos desk with a keyboard tray that had the keyboard sitting in pocket below the hand rest. It was extremely uncomfortable and I blame it for my numerous spelling mistakes.

And speaking of work, I can't imagine how many times I would knock my coffee over underestimating the length of my mouse lol
