Digital camera reviews of 3M Ergonomic Mouse, Optical, USB/PS2 Compatible, Large Size, Black (EM500GPL)

Digital camera Review: 'Joystick' Mouse
Summary: 5 Stars

Although shaped like a joystick, it doesn't exactly work that way, but is very comfortable nonetheless. I started to get a little scared of my computer addiction when I noticed the symptoms of carpal tunnel, so I went looking for a mouse that could save my health. This works great once you get used to it, and none of the other mouses I tried worked that well for me. I started to notice a little tinge later on, but I think that's because of my bad posture, and a computer "desk" that's too high. Highly recommended.

Digital camera Review: 3M Ergo Mouse
Summary: 4 Stars

I've been using one of these ergonomic mice at work for over a year and the pain in my wrist has significantly been reduced. Since a quarter of my computing time is at home, I'm hoping to nearly eliminate all wrist pain soon. The pain in my wrist comes from approximately 25 years of repetitive motion (mousing) injury. It's amazing how quickly this type of injury can start to heal when you can keep your wrist (or any affected body part) in a neutral position. I've tried other ergomonic mice. This one seems the most natural for me. Unlike some of the others, there was no "learning curve" associated with this one.

I am very pleased with my new mouse. I was having pain in my right wrist while using the traditional mouse. Pain has gone! And the delivery of my mouse was very timely!

The 3M Ergonomic Mouse has reduced reduce hand and wrist problems. It works well in most software I have used it with. A scroll wheel would make it easer to use in SoldWorks.

Digital camera Review: 3M Ergonomic Mouse
Summary: 4 Stars

I got this mouse because I was having trouble with pain in my wrist/fingers after several days of very extensive mousing. I first tried one of these mice that our safety department loaned me. The mouse was excellent at relieving the stress on my wrist - after about two-three weeks of using it, the pain definitely diminished. Based on that experience, I order this one from Amazon. It arrived in about a week. Not great timing, but they met the shipping expectation that they set. From the beginning, I found that the thumb button on the new mouse seemed to work differently than the loaner. I found my thumb getting sore, so I would trade back and forth between using the new ergonomic mouse and my old standard mouse. After two weeks of using the new mouse, it abruptly starting registering single-clicks as double clicks. When the problem wouldn't go away, I called 3M. They were very helpful, and very prompt in sending me a new ergonomic mouse (and the prepaid label to return the old one). The new one they sent feels much better on my thumb, and registers single clicks properly.
Pros - mouse definitely provided the ergonomic benefits, excellent warranty service from 3m
Cons - I wish that I hadn't had any problems with the mouse. The software for programming the third button to alternate behaviors than scrolling doesn't work with Windows XP.
