have you guys ever seen one of these ?

they look weird, but so far i like mine a lot. i've only had it a few days and now that i am use to it, using a regular mouse actually feels kinda weird to me.!

these are suppose to be better (i don't know if they really are) since your wrist is kept in a neutral 'hand shake' position rather than twisting your forearm like you do with a regular mouse. though i wonder why i have never seen one of these before (until i started looking into ways of helping my carpal tunnel syndrome). it does feel more comfortable though.

there are 4 programmable buttons too which is pretty nice. more info here: http://www.evoluent.com/vmouse2right.htm

i thought some might find it interesting, it's a pretty cool device. the only part that sucks is they cost like $60. anyone else use one of these ?! what do you think ??

I always thought these looked awesome. Too bad they don't make a wireless one, that's a deal breaker for me.

It's about freaking time. Mouse manufacturers have been way behind in improving ergonomics. Now egocidal just needs to learn what a chode is, and we'll be set.

I've got one too. It works real well but it takes some getting used to.

Whoa. I saw the picture, then immediately rotated my hand 90 degrees. That is insanely more comfortable. Why the hell aren't all mouses like this?

Upon further review, 45 degrees > vertical > conventional.

They should call it a pussy instead.

i actually find it most comfortable upside down. if somehow they could make that work. like an optical mouse that used the ceiling as its reference point.

I hope your boss bought this for you.

BTW, how's the wrist?

Does it give you that 'phallic' feel in your hand, like you're holding your man's junk?
It sure looks gay.

the evoluent is a great mouse design, but, as someone else mentioned, it doesn't have a wireless version. it also only comes in one size (pretty large), so people with small hands often don't like them.

There was recently an article in one of the major ***** magazines on Phil Ivey.

In it, there is a picture of Phil on his couch playing Party on a plasma holding what looks to be a wireless, vertical mouse. Any ideas what this could be?
