[Guest]

The new Spire Archer I ergonomic mouse has a rather interesting design that claims to reduce health issues caused by long term computer use.

looks pretty similar to the evoluent vertical mice

Is it a news or ad? I recently bought a vertical mouse with the clicker and wheel on the top side instead of bottom as in this one, and returned.

Cant wait to play SC2 with this baby. :/

Just google vertical mouse and see that this isn't that new...

The news part of this is 'ergo mouse for $20'. Most of 'em run well over fifty bucks.
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.

It is titled and developed as if a mouse targeted for solving carpel tunnel syndrome is relatively new. Price is mentioned as kind of addendum, not a key info. Also, my vertical mouse cost me $29.99, albeit returned finally.

I hope they make a left-handed one as well, since this design can not be ambidextrous.

I don't like any of those vertical mice that still require index finger movements for primary clicking. Sure, they address the wrist angle, but they don't address the specific tendon and its position fatigue.

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.

I've looked into getting a vertical mouse. Problem is, instead of using your wrist, you use your whole arm for mouse movements. Not very friendly when it comes to gaming, particularly FPS.

will this be better than the-now-almost-extinct trackball mice?

Trackballs will never fade away...
