Digital camera reviews of 3M Ergonomic Mouse, Optical, USB/PS2 Compatible, Small Size, Black (EM500GPS)
Digital camera Review: Good for wrist problems
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a copy of the Anir mouse from Norway, also called a Renaissance mouse. The mouse eliminates wrist movement. I have wrist tendinitis, and this helps tremendously. The mouse is moved more by shoulder movement. If you have shoulder problems, then this is not good.Digital camera Review: Good product, but could be better
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been using this mouse for over a year now because I was worried I was developing carpal tunnel or tendonitis in my wrist. Turns out I have a fluid cyst (ganglion) instead, which has nothing to do with my mouse choice. The 3M mouse was very easy to get used to and feels good, more natural, so I will continue to use it anyway as a preventative for other conditions. I've found two drawbacks to this product. One is that the in-page scroll function does not work with Firefox, my preferred browser, so I've had to switch to Internet Explorer (this is the only program I've had this problem with). The other drawback is that there is no cordless option. The cord is a bit more cumbersome than for a standard mouse because I find it more comfortable to keep this mouse closer to my body, which causes the cord to trail over the keyboard. I would easily have paid $75 for the cordless version. I'm a petite woman (5'1") and the S/M is a good fit.Digital camera Review: Great Mouse!
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this computer mouse. It's wonderful for somebody like me, with carpal tunnel syndrome. Regular computer mice make my hand really stiff after a while, but this 3M vertical mouse (which looks like a joystick, but isn't) is excellent for long-term usage. It took about two weeks for me to get used to the buttons, but after that, no problem. I liked the one they got for me at work so much that I got one for home use. And, believe it or not, Amazon.com is the only place I found it at a reasonable price!Digital camera Review: Great Mouse!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just love this mouse. I am a Network admin and have been using PC's everyday for about 15 years. This mouse has totally saved my hand! It feels more natural and is easy to use. sometimes I miss the rolling ball but it does have an extra button that brings up an arrow so you can scroll easy. I have had no problems with the precision on this mouse, but it does take a little getting used to. Between this mouse and my ergonomic keyboard (split) my wrists are pain free! Thank you 3M!!Digital camera Review: Great for RSI injuries
Summary: 4 Stars
This mouse is great for those of us with RSI problems. I have had four of these mice over the past 6 years. Like others have stated, the tracking isn't great and it can break when traveling but in my opinion, the design makes up for those flaws.
A worthwhile purchase.
