Hi
I'm getting symptoms of RSI in my mouse hand, wrist and especially in my index finger, and am researching ergonomic 'mice' and WACOM tablets, and which are best at minimising the chance of RSI.
Up till now I've been using a Microsoft Intellipoint mouse, which is very accurate and easy to move around, but doesn't seem to 'fit' my hand.
Everyone works in their own way and so different solutions will obviously suit different people. But I've heard some report that a WACOM tablet is better than a mouse, because it encourages the use of a different set of muscles, different arm posture etc etc.
The theory seems to make sense but they're expensive, and the only person I know who has one that I could borrow to try has one too old for the current G4 (serial port rather than USB).
Are they worth the money? Or are there mice available which are equally as good?
