3M Ergonomic Mouse SMALL/MEDIUM

Awesome mouse! For someone with initial stages of CTS wrist/palm pain, this is a lifesaver.. very very effective design.

I USED TO have bad pain in my hands and wrists from office work all day long. I've tried this mouse for about three weeks now and have found the following:

Pros:

1)Vertical use of the mouse relieves a lot of stress from your nerves

2)Scrolling button in the middle is very useful for viewing documents that are long

Cons:

1)Still requires the same amount of space as a standard mouse, maybe more in some cases

2)Would have preferred the vertical alignment to be closer to a 90 degree angle

3)Biggest problem I have started noticing is if you do a lot of clicking, you will start straining your thumb

I was debating whether to give this item 4 or 3 stars but when I thought about whether or not I would buy it again, I found 3 stars more appropriate. This is a good product, an improvement on the standard mouse, but you could easily develop problems with your thumb if you do a lot of clicking. I attribute some relief of my pain to this mouse but the main factor was switching over to a safetype keyboard. Now I'm starting to develop strain in my thumb so I will be trying another ergonomic mouse.

This is my second mouse by 3m and I am in love and converting others over to them..Once you have this mouse you will not ever want the others.

This product is a two-button mouse. It is ergonomic (i.e., it doesn't cause as much stress on the hand as a regular mouse). The big drawback is that I can't scroll with it. Apparently the scroll feature only works for Microsoft products such as Internet Explorer and Outlook Express. I don't use either of these. If they'd write some more software, It might be a better product.

I'm now using the Logitech Marble Mouse. It has some drawbacks too, but it has more functions than the 3M Ergonomic MOuse.

I was having some wrist pain and suspected it to be from repetitive use of my traditional mouse. After about two weeks of using this mouse the wrist pain was gone.
