Review:I purchased this product as a replacement for a standard 2-button laser mouse with a wheel. I spend a large amount of time on the computer, and the standard mouse was making my wrist sore from use. I could tell a huge difference as soon as I starting using this mouse! The ergonomic design, as well as the larger size, is a lot more comfortable. I have struggled with Carpal Tunnel syndrome for several years, but this mouse doesn't aggravate the symptoms nearly as much as the previous mouse did. The extra buttons and functions also cut down on unnecessary movement by allowing shortcuts for certain functions, such as going back to previous pages, going forward to previous pages, or even switching between applications. The functions are programmable, too. You can set up certain buttons to do different things. All these features allow for more productivity, and less strain on your wrist. It will take a little practice to get used to all these functions, but if you use a computer very much, it won't take long at all.
