This pad is smaller than any mouse pad I've ever seen, and it offers absolute positioning (vs. relative positioning with mice) at a high resolution. The user interface is mouselike, but it would probably consume less desk space (and less stress due to moving your hand around less). They have the additional advantage of being 3-button. I have almost bought one several times, but I'm happy with my current mouse (Logitech) at the moment, and I have a nice backup mouse (also Logitech). -- bryan k ogawa http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
